THE DEADLINE for bids to take over a popular Newport food outlet is on Wednesday.
Interested parties have until March 27 to submit last-minute bids to acquire Holy Cheesus, in Bridge Street.
In a Facebook post yesterday, owner Vernon Tessio said: “Hello all! This is a final shout out for anyone who may be interested in taking over the cheese empire!
"Thanks for all the interest so far. The last day to get your offer in is Wednesday March 27. So, if you’ve not done so, already drop us an email to holycheesusuk@gmail.com for all the info!
"Have a gouda night cheese gang! Feel free to share.”

Saying he had been left devastated over the decision, Mr Tessio’s added: "Your faces will be what we miss most of all."
He also put a call out to entrepreneurs to get in touch to purchase the business.
Holy Cheesus proved hugely popular after it first opened in December 2017.
On its opening day it had to close early due to unprecedented demand.
Mr Tessio said of his creations: “I’ve been experimenting with the fillings with some positive results and some downright failures.
"This love of crafting the best grilled cheese sandwich, encouragement from friends and family eventually led me on to a business idea.”
