Michigan’s Only Bojangles Closes After Nine Months

Michigan’s only Bojangles, in Wyoming near Grand Rapids, has permanently closed less than a year after opening in February 2026. The restaurant was operated by Chicken Ventures, an affiliate of Grand Rapids-based Meritage Hospitality Group, which filed for bankruptcy protection in September. Meritage had planned to open additional Bojangles locations, but it was not immediately clear whether the bankruptcy directly caused the Wyoming closure. Bojangles has more than 800 locations, primarily in the Southeast.
