Citing Crime, In-N-Out Announces Closure of Oakland Restaurant
22nd January 2024
Southern California-based fast-food chain In-N-Out said in a statement Sunday that it will shutter its Oakland restaurant in the spring “due to ongoing issues with crime.”
The restaurant, located at 8300 Oakport Street off Interstate 880 near Oakland International Airport, will close Sunday, March 24, according to a statement from In-N-Out chief operating officer Denny Warnick.
According to Warnick, the location has been a profitable one for the company, which is headquartered in Irvine.
“…This location remains a busy and profitable one for the company, but our top priority must be the safety and wellbeing of our Customers and Associates – we cannot ask them to visit or work in an unsafe environment,” Warnick said in the statement.
