Why Marston’s?
Partner with the best
They’ve been crowned the top pub company for pub partners to work with, by the Pubs Code Adjudicator Tied Tenant Survey 2023! Our pub partners are the most satisfied with our relationship, out of all the pub companies. By partnering with us, you know you’re joining the industry leaders.
By Your Side, Behind The Bar
Their different partnerships exist to share the risk and manage some of the biggest costs involved in running a pub, like utilities. This frees you up to focus on making the pub a success. We won’t expect you to have all the answers though, that’s why each partner has a dedicated Area Manager to guide them through the day-to-day. Our partners don’t do it alone. They have over 400 of our Pub Support Centre experts by their side behind the scenes too, including Marketing, Finance and Estates amongst many others.
They Give their Partners A Voice
‘Your Voice’ online engagement survey is a chance for pub partners to share their views and help shape their experience with Marston’s. Pub partners’ anonymity is always protected. The survey covers questions on a variety of topics, including partnerships, reward, recognition and professional growth.
Award-Winning Training
Providing industry-leading learning and development tools to help pub partners succeed, including bespoke platform Campus. Here they get access to British Institute of Innkeeping accredited training, HR tools and resources, free of charge and available to use whenever it suits them best.
Pubs To Be Proud Of
With an impressive portfolio of pubs across the UK, what they all have in common is that they’re all guest-obsessed, full of energy, and truly dedicated to making their pubs the beating heart of the community. Getting it right is about knowing and responding to what the community wants, and then bringing that to life.
The Community Hub
Their community connection goes beyond our four walls, and they’re proud to show this by partnering with local and national charities. From food banks to sensory gardens, they give back to those who need it most, up and down the country. They also have their own Charitable Foundation, which supports fundraising in their pubs and Pub Support Centre.
Environmentally responsible
Committed to being a responsible and sustainable business by adopting a People and Planet positive approach for all their people, suppliers, pub partners, guests and the communities they serve. The main way in which they do this is through their ‘Doing more to be proud of’ initiative which focuses on four core pillars: Planet, People, Product & Policy. Each of the four pillars connect to the core of what they do in business, and where they believe they can make the biggest impact. This includes increasing the number of electric car chargers at pubs & inns, achieving zero waste to landfill and using 100% recycled garden furniture.
