Popeyes Franchise Group Sailormen Inc Files for Bankruptcy, Potentially Closing 20 Locations
Rising inflation, decreased customer traffic, and significant debt led Sailormen Inc, one of Popeyes largest franchise groups, to file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy on January 15, 2026. The company, which operates 136 locations, has already closed 17 stores in Florida and Georgia, with 3 more planned closures in Georgia. Sailormen has been struggling with unpaid bills since 2022 and failed sales deals, leaving the future of their remaining locations uncertain.
