Cracker Barrel is exiting its Maple Street Biscuit Company business by selling the brand and assets of 35 locations to Biscuit Belly LLC and closing the remaining 16 restaurants. Additionally, it completed a sale-leaseback deal on 26 company-owned locations, raising about $77 million to reduce debt.

Biscuit Belly plans to convert the acquired Maple Street locations into its own restaurants, expanding its footprint significantly over the next few years.
