Atom Brewing Co - Administration

Atom Brewing Co, a Hull-based brewery which produces a range of beers, has been rescued out of administration via a pre-pack deal by local businessman Rob Brocklesby, who owns a company which manufactures animal feed.

Atom was founded in 2014 and opened its first tap room in Hull a few years later.

The company has suffered through a challenging environment post-COVID, culminating in Matthew Russell and Gareth Lewis of Lewis Business Recovery & Insolvency being appointed joint administrators on 27 November. Immediately following their appointment, the joint administrators completed the sale to Mr Brocklesby, saving all employee jobs.

The company is represented by Freeths.
