I heard a story tonight of a newsagent being put under pressure by another party approaching the landlord with a better deal for when the lease expires. This newsagent could lose their business as the landlord says they have no legal obligation to offer them a new lease even though no payment has ever been missed another shop has always been fresh and exciting.
Those operating in and around our channel that do this, try and grab businesses built up by others, by going direct to the landlord need to be exposed for the unethical people they are. Hopefully, the world punishes them.
I don’t know how things will pan out for this newsagent. Hopefully, they get to keep their business on reasonable terms, they deserve to.
