Villa Marina bar profits fall despite increased turnover

Facility made just over £97,000 selling drinks last year

The amount of profit recorded by the bar in the Villa Marina fell last year, despite turnover increasing.

More than £280,000 was spent at the site during the 2021-22 financial year, giving a profit of just over £97,000.

However, that's down from the 2019-20 period, when a profit of £113,600 was recorded from a turnover of £275,000.

In the same period, profits at the Gaiety Theatre's bar doubled to £5,600, despite turnover remaining largely unchanged.

Figures for the 2020-21 period weren't included, with the facility having been closed for periods in that financial year due to Covid-19 restrictions.
