The terms of the deal were not disclosed. However, the Edina, MN-based Lund Food Holdings expects to unveil its new convenience food offering at two stores this fall, and then complete the rollout to the rest of the two chains in 2005.
Lettuce Entertain You owns and licenses nearly 50 restaurants in the US and Japan. In the Twin Cities, the firm owns Wildfire, Twin City Grill, Magic Pan and Tucci Benucch. In addition, Lettuce Entertain You has created more than 100 food concepts.
