T.G.I. Friday’s

T.G.I Friday’s story is a rather sweet one. In 1965, it was founded in New York City. The purpose behind it was to create a space for younger people – in their twenties and thirties – to meet and mingle at a comfortable and laid-back environment. Nowadays, the chain is slowly becoming less popular with that specific demographic. In 2018 and 2019, they closed down branches in key locations such as Tallahassee, Staten Island, and Washington DC.

Papa Murphy’s

If you tend to worry your pizza won’t be warm and fresh by the time it gets delivered to you, Papa Murphy’s figured out the solution. They created the take-and-bake method where you get the pizza at the window, take it home and then bake it. While that sounds great, in 2018 and 2019, the company had to close down over 60 locations across the United States.
