Bertucci’s

The Italian restaurant chain applied for bankruptcy during the spring of 2018. Associated Press reported that the Massachusetts-based joint shut down 15 locations in April. At the time, it had 59 restaurants in 10 states. Earl Enterprises acquired the company for $20 million, which can be subdivided into $13 million in debt, $4 million in credit, and $3 million in cash. Bertucci’s allegedly had a hard time competing with other restaurants.

Gymboree

CNBC reported that Gymboree applied for bankruptcy in January 2019. During the filing, it announced that it was ceasing operations in all Crazy 8 and Gymboree stores. This March, it announced that this was no longer the case. Apparently, it was acquired by Children’s Place, another children’s product distributor. While it bought Crazy 8 and Gymboree, the Gap purchased intellectual property, websites, customer data, and more.
