The introduction of new UK legislation in July 2007 banning smoking from all enclosed premises presented a significant challenge to the licensing trade. As it is unrealistic to expect the 35% of public who currently smoke to change their smoking habits overnight, publicans needed to find a way of legally catering for their customers who like to smoke when they drink and eat, otherwise there’s a very real chance these customers will stay at home.
The proven solution to this problem is the provision of outdoor smoking zones and alfresco dining areas and since the ban Shades have come up with many different solutions. Whether it be a small smoking shelter or a large outdoor are catering for many we have the solution for you.
