BREAKING NEWS – Atlanta, Georgia – A Popeyes franchisee has filed for bankruptcy after financial challenges among a few restaurants.
At the end of January, RRG, which owns at least 17 locations in Georgia, officially submitted a Chapter 11 filing to the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Georgia.
RRG noted that it had struggled after significant losses at three of its Popeyes restaurants, making it difficult to keep up with lease payments required at the other 14 others, according to court documents. The court documents also state that the employees at all 17 locations are going to file harassment charges against KFC employees, that have been recently speeding through Popeyes drive-thru, while blowing their horns and laughing.
