In other words, the massive Endeavour group has just purchased a business for $40 million together with the property group Charter Hall. <\/p>\n<p>It bought the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.terreyhillstavern.com.au\">Terrey Hills Tavern<\/a> \u2014 a comfortable lounge bar and restaurant, but also a sports bar, beer garden, and live show venue. <\/p>\n<p>The owner was <strong>Chris Feros<\/strong>, who ran the 1.6-hectare tavern for the last 16 years, while the sale negotiators were <strong>Dan Dragicevich, Andres Jolliffe, and Brent McCarthy<\/strong>, all employees of HTL Property, a notable commercial real estate firm. <\/p>\n<p>The vital purchase was likely spearheaded by the Melbourne pub owner <strong>Bruce Mathieson<\/strong>, a major shareholder in the Endeavour group. <\/p>\n<p>The group will take over 20 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.legitgambling.com\/au\/pokies\">pokie machines<\/a> and the leasehold, while Charter Hall will take over the freehold. The 20 poker machines will be added to <strong>Endeavour\u2019s existing 12,000 gaming machines in 332 venues across Australia and New Zealand<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>A spokesperson for the group has stated that they were all delighted to welcome Terrey Hills Tavern to their family and consider it a great addition to the company\u2019s portfolio. It\u2019s an addition to both their hotel and retail businesses. <\/p>\n<p>The spokesperson has assured the local community that this purchase was an excellent fit for Endeavour and that the tavern would still provide exceptional service to all guests. <\/p>\n<p>This effectively marks the first purchase in the last 15 years for ALH, the pub operator that merged with the Endeavour group in 2020. Until recently, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.smh.com.au\/business\/companies\/endeavour-under-pressure-to-perform-as-woolworths-completes-demerger-20210624-p583yd.html\">Endeavour was part of Woolworths<\/a>, but it split from Australia\u2019s largest company last month.<\/p>\n<p>This demerger was worth $10 billion, and through it, Bruce Mathieson got a 14.6% share of the group. What\u2019s more, the demerger effectively made Endeavour the biggest pub operator and drinks retailer in the country. <\/p>\n<p>As for Charter Hall, the company entered the pub market in Sydney with a massive bang back in 2014 when it teamed up with Hostplus, the Australian superannuation fund, to purchase $603 million worth of assets. <\/p>\n<p>The entire Terrey Hills Tavern purchase is just the latest sale in the big and fast-expanding Sydney pub market. Even though the pandemic and subsequent government measures have closed many of the pubs for a while, there has been lots of activity in the market. <\/p>\n<p>For instance, in the last month, around $300 million worth of local pubs have been purchased by big businesses, indicating that the market is bound for further improvement and change.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The sprawling Sydney pub market has gained a new player in the shape of the newly-listed pub and pokie company Endeavour.
