Focus on Company's Growing Core Brand Spurs Sale of Seven-Restaurant Chain
Bertucci's Corporation announced today it has sold the Vinny T's of Boston to New York-based C&T Restaurant Management LLC. Bertucci's purchased Vinny T's in 2006 and is selling the seven-restaurant chain to focus on its growing Bertucci's Italian Restaurant(R) brand.
'The sale of Vinny T's will allow us to concentrate fully on the 94 Bertucci's restaurants,' said Stephen Clark, CEO of Bertucci's Corporation. 'This strategic decision was made to focus on building our flagship brand.'
John Thall and Piero Casalicchio are the principals of C&T Restaurant Management LLC. With more than 40 years of restaurant management experience between them, Mr. Thall and Mr. Casalicchio currently own a chain of successful moderately priced Italian restaurants in Long Island, N.Y. called Pomodorino. 'We are excited and look forward to the opportunity to bring our fresh, authentic, Italian cuisine to our guests in the Boston area through the Vinny T's of Boston brand,' said Mr. Thall.
