41. that half of those are yet to be closed in the next few months, because of falling
42. turnover. What’s more, the company is still recovering from the sudden
43. resignation of its Managing Director in April. While Dawkin operates 84 cafes,

45. less achievable, given that the company’s poor financial position and limits on

48. redoubling speculation that Dawkin’s days as an independent operator are being
49. numbered. Roughly equal in size, the two have long been competing for the
50. number five slot in the overcrowded cafe market. There are now rumours of a
