Chains are slowing growth and cutting units in 2017 amid weak sales and traffic
After years of seemingly unstoppable growth, the restaurant industry has stepped on the brakes in 2017.

Many others, meanwhile, are closing units, as those sales and traffic challenges create underperforming locations that lose money and hurt overall profitability.
Here’s a look at the chains that are closing locations or slowing their growth this year or next.
