Unexpected restaurant closures in Washington have reportedly led to layoffs at 10 separate sites by September.
As per the Employment Security Department, Homegrown Partners LLC has declared that the eateries would be permanently closed on September 15th.
A total of 158 individuals will lose their jobs when 10 Homegrown stores in the Seattle region shut down in September.
As previously announced, Homegrown’s catering business and the remaining sites in downtown Seattle and Mercer Island will stay open and operational.
The business mentioned a “unsustainable model” that led to economic consequences like rising food and labor prices as the basis for the decision.
I was wondering which Washington locations may be shutting.
