Mexican Dining Crisis: Beloved Chains File Bankruptcy and Close Doors as Industry Hits Breaking Point

Mexican Dining Crisis: Beloved Chains File Bankruptcy and Close Doors as Industry Hits Breaking Point

In summary, a squeeze on mid-tier Mexican chains is underway: beloved sit-down restaurants are shuttering locations or reorganizing under bankruptcy, even as fast-casual Mexican concepts (like Chipotle) remain popular.

First Brands Group Files for Chapter 11, Discloses $10–$50 Billion in Liabilities

First Brands Group Files for Chapter 11, Discloses $10–$50 Billion in Liabilities

Overall, First Brands Group’s Chapter 11 filing represents a major failure in the auto aftermarket space. It underscores the dangers of aggressive debt structures in a rising-rate environment. For now, the company has stayed open for business, suppliers will continue to ship parts, and customers (retailers and repair shops) will receive product normally. The big questions remain how much debt can be restructured, who will control the reorganized firm, and what this means for competitors. Any final outcome (sale or restructuring) will likely emerge only after lengthy court proceedings in the coming months. Sources: First Brands’ Chapter 11 petition and press
