The restaurant industry generally has a high turnover rate, with new and old establishments routinely leaving and entering the market. A study released in January 2021, revealed that significantly less restaurant, pub, and bar sites had opened in the United Kingdom in 2020 than in 2019, at only 3,955 sites. Comparatively 6,487 sites were recorded as having opened in the UK in 2019. Likely, this was a result of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
