Taco Bell
It is a good idea to clarify that Taco Bell is not exactly authentic Mexican food. More accurately, it is Mexican-inspired. At the moment, it is looking at expansion abroad. Even though this sounds like great news, there is a price to pay. In 2019, it closed locations in Arkansas, Pennsylvania, and four in Maine.
Pollo Tropical
Pollo Tropical is a restaurant chain known among Southern Floridians for its Caribbean offerings. Sadly, things did not go well after it expanded into Venezuela, Haiti, and Cuba. It also had plans to open a store in Texas, although this did not come to fruition. Thanks to the huge financial losses that it suffered, it shut down 23 locations when 2019 rolled in. In 2019, this trend kept coming with more store closures.
