Pinkberry
Back in 2005, Pinkberry opened in West Hollywood. Soon, it rose to fame and became a popular celebrity hangout. The yogurt truly was magical, but it wasn’t enough apparently. The company reached 21 countries, but in 2015, the number of locations dropped to 139 in the U.S. and no more.
Carl’s Jr.
One of the most famous and loved food chains in the U.S. and Canada, Carl’s Jr. is owned by CKJE Restaurant Holdings. What started out as a hot dog cart in 1941 later became a huge restaurant chain. Sadly, even with their popularity, the company had to close down multiple stores each year. Thankfully, they still have 1,490 branches running – for now.
