Cinemas & Health Clubs

When the country's second-largest cinema operator and a number of national health clubs needs licensing advice, they turn to us.

“Cineworld has been working with Gosschalks Licensing team for many years and we couldn’t have asked for a better service. They’re knowledgeable, approachable and always quick to respond to anything we ask of them, and also offer excellent advice based on their extensive experience. We wouldn't hesitate in recommending them to anyone.”

Licensing Management Services

We manage a wide range of licensing requirements for a number of major supermarket operators, major national retailers, national health club chains, pub companies and cinema operators, so we know a thing or two about managing large licensed estates. We offer a retainer based management service whereby we can deal with as little or as much as you need us to.

As part of our managed service we ensure you remain 100% compliant at all times by helping you to manage all or some of your day to day requirements in relation to your alcohol licences. We can deal with all issues relating to the Licensing Act 2003 as well as the Licensing (Scotland) Act 2005 including premises licences, personal licences as well as all associated ancillary licences.

For operators with large estates, you’ll also have access to our bespoke licensing management software as well as a range of in-depth reporting services, so you can still maintain a hands-on approach to managing a fully compliant licensing regime for your business.
