Bob Evans Restaurants(NEW YORK) — Bob Evans Farms Inc. announced it will sell more than 500 restaurants across the U.S. as it splits into two businesses
The iconic family-style Bob Evans Restaurants will be sold to Golden Gate Capital, which also owns the California Pizza Kitchen and Red Lobster chains, for $565 million.
