The Straight Skinny on Colony CiCi's
This is what they told me back end of November when they were closing up:
He wanted to break his contract with CiCi's. They were too restrictive. The one month he was Villages Pizza, he made more money, and had more compliments on the food, then the whole previous 4 years they were open. He could do things his way. CiCi's sued him and took him to court. The judge sided with CiCi's only because he broke his contract. CiCi's forced him to close. He offered to sell his equipment to CiCi's but they didn't want it, so it won't likely be a CiCi's again. CiCi's will sue him again if he opens up anywhere else. His lawyer offered to pay them a "cut" if they leave him alone. Otherwise he will have to go bankrupt and they won't get anything. He paid December rent. He moved and stored everything except his oven. Said he would deep clean and reopen if they accept his offer. It's Jan 2 and the oven is still there. The saga continues...
