Decades-old seafood chain Red Lobster has shuttered one of its six San Antonio locations during an abrupt closure of more than 10% of its locations nationwide.
, Neal Sherman — CEO of liquidation firm TAGeX Brands — announced he's leading the closure of more than 50 Red Lobster locations and arranging to auction off their gear.
Major items up for bid at the San Antonio store include high-performance ovens, upright refrigerators and freezers along with bar and dining room necessities, according to the online listing. Perishable items and booze aren't included in the sale. Earlier this year, 55-year-old Red Lobster's largest investor, Thai Union, announced it was looking to sell off its stake in the chain,that Red Lobster was shopping for a buyer in hopes of avoiding a bankruptcy filing. So far, no takers have swooped in to save the day.
