Gusto, the Italian restaurant in Cheadle Hulme, could be due to close soon.

The restaurant chain is facing administration, Sky News reports, with Cherry Equity Partners seemingly the most likely buyer.

Around six out of Gusto's 13 restaurants are expected to close, with an estimated 190 job losses. Cherry Equity Partners is looking to buy the other seven.

According to The Caterer, the sites that close will be those in smaller suburban locations, which administrator Interpath Advisory said were 'economically unviable'.

It's unclear at this stage exactly which sites are closing.

As well as Cheadle Hulme, Gusto has restaurants in Spinningfields, Alderley Edge, Knutsford, and others further afield.

Gusto chief executive Paul Moran said: "We are profoundly sorry to see six of our restaurants close and are tremendously grateful for the support of our staff and our loyal customers at these locations over the years."

Gusto Cheadle Hulme is based on Station Road, and specialises in pasta, pizza, salads, and more.
