Sainsbury's Announces Closure of Cafés and 3,000 Job Cuts

Sainsbury's is set to close 61 in-store cafes, including two in Bristol, as part of a significant revamp. The closures will lead to over 3,000 job losses as the company strives to save £1 billion over three years. Simon Roberts, Sainsbury's chief executive, described the current cost environment as especially challenging. These closures come after Sainsbury's most successful Christmas trading period, with profits anticipated to range between £1.01 billion and £1.06 billion.
