The Power Players Behind the Deal
The buyer group brings together a trio of heavyweights in the restaurant and investment world:
-
TriArtisan Capital Advisors, based in New York, best known for its ownership stake in P.F. Chang’s, is leading the acquisition.
-
Treville Capital Group, an alternative asset manager, brings financial muscle to the table.
-
Yadav Enterprises, one of Denny’s largest franchise operators with 550 restaurants nationwide, adds industry expertise and operational reach.
TriArtisan co-founder Rohit Manocha hailed the acquisition as a celebration of an enduring American brand.
“Denny’s is an iconic piece of the American dream,” Manocha said. “We look forward to supporting its next chapter of growth and innovation.”
