Welcome To PGB
The Pub Governing Body is the organisation responsible for promoting the advancement and improvement of Landlord (Pub Owning Companies) and tied tenant relationships in the licensed retail sector. It covers signatory companies that own between 1 – 499 tied pubs in England and Wales and the signatory companies in Scotland. The PGB achieves this through the publication of Codes of Practice which, set the minimum standard for landlords and enhances their business relationship with tenants and lessees subject to a contractual purchasing obligation.
The codes can by found by clicking on the links below:
Pub Sector – England and Wales Tenanted (1-499 Pubs)
Pub Sector – England and Wales Leased (1-499 Pubs)
Tenants and lessees of companies with more than 500 pubs are governed by the Pubs Code 2016 and come under the Pubs Code Adjudicator. Their website can be accessed here
