Goals 'satisfied' with first half performance
Goals Soccer Centres managing director Keith Rogers has announced that he is "satisfied" with trading during the first half of 2011, after sales increased by 11 per cent to £14.7m.
During the six months ending 30 June, the operator of 43 five-a-side football facilities saw a 3 per cent increase in like-for-like sales and 8 per cent growth in adjusted pre-tax profits. Four new locations opened during the six-month period, while a new modular build concept is currently being trialled in the development of its latest site in Chester.
The group has confirmed that two of its scheduled openings for this year have now been put back until 2012 in order to evaluate the success of its modular concept. Rogers said: "The opportunity to utilise modular build pavilions in our rollout is an important development for our business.
"The opportunity to maintain a strong rollout strategy while reducing costs and shortening build time and simultaneously reducing debt will significantly improve our business model going forward."
