The Fair Pint Campaign
Supporting tied landlords and consumers

Half of Britain’s pubs are tied to pubcos. Even though tied landlords can buy cheaper beer - they are tied to the pubcos for their supply.

  • Tied pub landlords must buy all of their beer and some other supplies from the pubco.
  • Consequently the consumer is usually paying a significanly inflated price for a pint of beer, and tied pub landlords are being forced to sell beer at a loss.
  • Around 35 pubs a week - just under five a day - are closing.
It’s time to call for a fair pint.
