The owner of upmarket burger chain Byron has called in administrators for the second time in less than three years with almost half the 21-site chain closing immediately with the loss of more than 200 jobs.
The administrators to Famously Proper, which also owns the Mother Clucker takeaway brand, said 12 branches were being saved and 365 jobs saved under a pre-agreed rescue deal with Tristar Foods. Both companies have the same owner, the private equity firm Calveton.
