Soho House also revealed its annual losses widened from \u00a360m to \u00a365m in 2018, due to investment in its ambitious growth plans.<\/p>\n

Revenues rose by 20 per cent to \u00a3432.5m, boosted by rising food and drink sales and the addition of more than 20,000 members \u2013 taking the total to about 89,000 worldwide.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Jones said 2018 had been ‘an extremely busy year for Soho House as we continued to expand our global membership’.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The company runs private members clubs for those who work in the arts and the media, with a pass to all clubs \u2013 or houses \u2013 costing \u00a31,700 per year. Jones said: ‘We are happy with it [the loss]. At the moment it is all about expanding and opening more houses.’<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
