He says he has been 'blown away' by the amount of support after he announced last week that it would be closing.
Nerdy coffee shop in Mardol, Shrewsbury, has announced its closure. ..
An electricity bill that jumped from £2,500 to £5,000 a MONTH has proven to be the last straw for the Mardol business. It has also been hit by flooding over and Tom calls it a"perfect storm of a bad financial situations."The £60,000 annual cost of energy alone put on top of other rising costs for ingredients like cheese that has gone from £7 to £14 a bag means the business has become unsustainable.
Tom said:"We could do crowdfunding but it would be morally wrong to ask the community to do something to make my life easier. It is not a fair thing to do. Nerdy was opened in August 2019 and had, as Tom said,"three or four months before the world went wrong."But he said they they survived for four years which is one cause for celebration. And he added that it feels"anticlimactic" to have to close because of a simple electricity bill after all they have survived.
