Heaslip eatery set to ‘substantially’ grow profit

The Dublin restaurant group that Irish rugby international, Jamie Heaslip, has an interest in is expecting to increase profits "substantially" this year.

The Jo Burger group operates six restaurants in Dublin: three Jo’Burger outlets, Crackbird, Skinflint, with Irish and Leinster player Jamie Heaslip having a share in the group’s Bear restaurant.

Company director John Roberts said yesterday the recovery in the economy is beginning to filter through to the group “and the last 12 weeks have been really good”.
