This is how China gets around the block on buying US land. They just bought a ton of it.

Welp I wasn’t a huge Pizza Hut customer but definitely won’t be buying from there ever again now.
Dominoes, papa John’s, Caesar’s and papa Murphys are all listed as either publicly traded or owned by a group non pe firm

When was Pizza Hut last alive? 2003 or so?
We have one near our house and order from them. Pizza is still good.

There's an old school, dine-in Pizza Hut in the Pigeon Forge, TN area that's been untouched since like the 1970s. It's always one of the highlights of my visits there.

I don't blame vultures for eating dead carcasses, and you shouldn't either.

I suppose that franchise owner who was trying to bring back the 80s and 90s style locations has just been vetoed (in effect).
Not necessarily.
IMO the only way pizza hut survives is going back to the dine in style. They tried to enter the little ceasars and dominos market and were losing to them.
They offered a different experience before. All the newer pizza huts were the small footprint take out only and they have been on a downward trend for years now.
Now will that happen under this new ownership? Probably not, but some brands have come back stronger after PE bought them.

Yep. Exactly what we have. Take out place only.
When I was young, they the buffet, salad bar and tabletop video games

Pizza Hut (really all national brands) for some reason prices got cheaper… a large Pizza Hut pizza in the 90’s was 20+$… nowadays it’s 10-12… I still like Pizza Hut obviously the quality not what it is was in the 90’s… I’m from Monroe so naturally my favorite pizza is Johnny’s although none outside of Ouachita parish … preferably the one on Louisville when I’m back home … I grew up walking distance to the original location next to Burger King… I stay walking distance now from the one on Highland in Baton Rouge… it ain’t the same
Another lil tidbit the original Johnny’s moved down the street to the original Pizza Hut in Monroe building… the first 18 years of my life those two buildings were the only places I had ever had pizza at or from

They have recently brought back the old menu items available on Thursdays. I bring my grandkids and the prices are not bad at all.
The 2 where I live are legit with the old school lunch buffet selections.

Yum brands ruined them so maybe pushing them out on their own will be a good thing. Probably not but it doesn’t matter with the recent version of The Hut.
Oh and…. Dump Pepsi

Mexican restaurants love the vacant Huts.

Yep, Yum has ruined everything it touches. No surprise UofL tacked their name on their basketball arena. Taco Bell, KFC, and Pizza Hut are all significantly worse than they were in the 90s.
Pizza Hut is downright terrible as far as their pizza goes. I ordered ohhhhhh....less than a year ago, close to football season. Wings. Cheese sticks. Pizza. Brownie.
I hadn't had it in ages and I kinda wanted to see what the different offerings were all about. Wings were alright. Not bad. Fine. Cheesesticks were pretty damn good actually. Brownie was fine, I had a little, not a big dessert guy.
But the pizza was downright bad. Just awful. As in I threw it away.

I think it depends on whether the location is valuable to another chain or if its a cheap rental for a local restaurant.
But their buildings will live on forever in some form or fashion

It's incredible that Pizza Hut's value is placed at 2.7 billion but a driverless taxi company is valued at over 100 billion dollars
Pizza Hut's sale price is twice the market cap of Papa John's, but no where close to Domino's, which is over $10B.

Pizza Hut as I knew died when they abandoned those buildings

Wife and I went to Austin a couple of weeks ago and we came across a Pizza Hut in an old location. We would have stopped and reported but we were in a bit of a hurry.

There’s an OG one in operation in Dahlonega, GA also. Salad bar, red plastic cups, the whole 9 yards.

I fricking hate private equity. Vultures and cockroaches, all of them.
