A Popular Restaurant in Idaho now makes an unexpected closure of its first-ever location in the state, marking its second shutter.

Carl’s Jr., known for its charbroiled burgers with special sauce and fries, plans to close its first-ever location in Boise, Idaho.

The company has not announced the official closure of the 226 South Broadway Ave location, but the outside signage has already been removed from the building, according to the Idaho Statesman.

This is the second location the fast food chain has closed in Boise since last year, according to the outlet.

Customers will still be able to eat the chain’s popular food at the other three locations in Boise along with more in surrounding cities including Meridian, Eagle, Nampa and Caldwell.

Carl’s Jr was founded in 1941 in Anaheim, California.

The company has expanded across the country and now has over 1,000 locations nationwide and serves 28 countries worldwide, totaling over 3,000 locations, reports The US Sun.

It is known for its bright yellow star sign that represents the chain.

Carl’s Jr. has a few fan favorites including the Six Dollar Burger, Hand-Scooped Milkshakes, and Charbroiled Turkey Burgers.

From 2000 to 2010, the company became the first fast food chain to offer a plant-based burger and a CBD-infused burger to customers, according to its website.

Boise saw a handful of restaurants close this year.

The Bonefish Grill decided to close on January 14 after 15 years of business.

Many employees were upset by the closure.

“We’re all sad about it. I’ve been working here for 14 years,” Ahmad Alharbyah, an assistant manager, told The Idaho Statesman.

The restaurant is saying bye for now, per a sign stuck on the door.

Alharbyah said the building’s rent had increased and there had been issues with the lease.

However, the chain may return to Idaho as the company was reportedly looking at other buildings.

The popular breakfast chain Denny’s also closed a location in Boise and one in Nampa this past March.

A massive shoe retailer now announces a new wave of layoffs to hit headquarters this summer, affecting over 700 employees.

Nike has announced its ‘second phase’ of mass layoffs, effective June 28, according to a Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) filing.

A total of 740 employees will be impacted in the retailer’s home state.

The layoffs are part of the 2% workforce reduction Nike announced in February, which is taking place across two phases, the company confirmed via email.

Nike said job titles and the number of employees in each category would be provided at a later date, once the company has determined them.

Bumping rights are not available for the impacted employees, reports Retail Dive.

“Nike’s always at our best when we’re on the offense. The actions that we’re taking put us in the position to right-size our organization to get after our biggest growth opportunities as interest in sport, health and wellness have never been stronger,” Nike said in a statement.

“While these changes will impact approximately 2% of our total workforce, we are grateful for the contributions made by all Nike teammates.”

The layoffs are tied to a cost-savings plan Nike unveiled in December, which is aimed at generating up to $2 billion in cumulative savings over three years.

Based on the company’s last annual report, the layoffs to 2% of its total workforce will impact more than 1,600 people.

Savings from the plan are set to be reinvested in driving growth, innovation and profitability.
