 PROFILE
UK-based Whitbread is off the sauce. The firm was one of the largest brewers in the UK, but it sold that business to Interbrew in 2000; it also sold its 3,000 UK pubs to Morgan Grenfell Private Equity, the venture capital unit of Deutsche Bank. Whitbread is focusing its efforts on food and lodging. It is one of the UK's leading restaurateurs, with some 1,500 restaurants at home, and in Austria and Germany. It is also a leading UK hotel operator, with about 310 hotels, including Marriott, Swallow, and Travel Inn brands. Whitbread also operates 55 David Lloyd and Curzons The Gym fitness clubs and about 2,600 wine and beer shops in a joint venture with Allied Domecq.
