I wonder if the Greenville location's closing is isolated, or if additional locations in other states have closed.

Mimi's Cafe was once owned by Bob Evans Restaurants, which experienced financial difficulty nearly a decade ago.

Ouch! Ouch!
Sealed Air / Cryovac has been a large employer in the area for YEARS. They have multiple facilities in the area including one near Simpsonville. Serious blow.

The Taco Bell on Woodruff could stand for a remodel as well.

I second the bummer. Took my wife and mother-in-law there every year for Mother's Day. Was one of the few places you could get a reservation and not be too expensive.

Food and service was always good there. Feel bad for the employees when a place closes with no notice.

Dang, so much bad news.

About 600 of the positions in Duncan are managerial, research and development, HR, communications and finance. The positions in Greenville are in customer service. There will be no Sealed Air employees left in Greenville. The Duncan facility will still have about 200 workers.
