Plough at Nettleham Scoops Top Award

Joanne Said, ‘Christos & I are delighted that the time and effort that we’ve put into turning the Plough into the business it’s become today has been recognised.  We’re grateful for the support Batemans has shown us and we’re looking forward to being back here next year.’

Stuart Bateman, added, ‘The Plough is an amazing business and a great example of how a properly constructed tenancy brewery relationship can bear fruit for everyone involved.  I’m absolutely thrilled for the team at The Plough and the brewery staff that have supported them.’

 

The Batemans ‘Profit Partnership’ Difference

Batemans existing business owners and free trade customers as well as licensees from outside the region, who are looking for a new business, are all attracted to running a Batemans pub due to the brewery’s unique Profit Partnership ethos.

The brewery’s Profit Partner tenancy agreement, rewards hard work in that Batemans will not subject their pubs to rent reviews nor remove access to Free Trade cash and carry pricing , no matter how successful a pub becomes .
