Summary
Seven beloved Hobart venues including Cargo Bar and Jack Greene have shut down abruptly as their parent companies, Pub Banc Group and Hotel Banc Group, enter voluntary administration. Administrators Apex Advisory are now stepping in to sell the businesses, aiming to preserve jobs and keep the doors open. With strong locations and loyal crowds, these spots are expected to attract serious buyer interest locally and nationally. The sudden closures have devastated event planners and customers, with venues scrambling to handle deposits and bookings. Owners blame soaring costs and reduced consumer spending, highlighting the dire pressures on Tasmania’s hospitality sector—and calling for urgent government support to stave off more closures.
