Arby’s

Arby’s has roughly 3,400 locations in the US, Canada, North Africa, and the Middle East. The fast-food sandwich chain is owned by Inspire. The company was formerly called Arby’s Restaurant Group, Inc., and it owns Buffalo Wild Wings. Bringing in over a billion dollars in revenue each year, Arby’s is definitely a success, but it is still closing underperforming branches. The restaurant is unfortunately known for abrupt branch closures, not notifying its own employees or the community when it decides to close a location.

Hardee’s

Hardee’s once merged with Carl’s Jr. The fast food chain has thousands of locations in America and is doing better than Carl’s Jr., but Hardee’s has announced strategic closures coming up. It also recently made headlines after it separated from Carl’s Jr. Hardee’s CEO found Carl’s Jr.’s racy advertising, featuring scantily clad women and envelope-pushing marketing campaigns, “incompatible” with Hardee’s, which aims to be a chain that is family-oriented, so the two companies divorced. Hardee’s is still headquartered in Tennessee, despite the split with Carl’s Jr. and CKE, Carl’s parent company.
