British celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay is expanding his portfolio by five new locations despite the pandemic saying he believes in supporting the growth of the industry.

Ramsay currently has 35 restaurants all over the world and he will add new ones to his “Street” restaurant concept. He is opening one Street Burger and three new Street Pizza rastaurants in london and plans to open one more by the end of the year.

“I have never been prouder of the hospitality industry than I am right now.  The challenges we are facing are very real and yet we are united in keeping our kitchens open, our teams working, and our guests looked after.  Despite these challenges I have to believe in supporting growth, to creating jobs and opportunities and more importantly, opening really great places for people to eat out and have fun” says Ramsay.
