Tortilla saw its group revenue climb by 60% to  £26.9 million in the six months to 3 July compared to the corresponding period in 2019. 

On a like-for-like basis, revenue increased by 19% on pre-pandemic levels.

During the period, the group acquired Chilango for £2.75 million which added eight sites to its portfolio, as well as one delivery kitchen. It also opened six new sites of its own to take its total number of restaurant outlets to 84 at the end of the half year.

Tortilla said it recognised that macro-economic headwinds are expected to persist over the coming months, although it has already taken proactive steps to help mitigate against the pressures. This has included updating pricing, driving operational efficiencies, and adopting a multi-platform delivery proposition by partnering with Uber Eats and Just Eat, as well as Deliveroo, to access more customers choosing to stay at home.
