Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. Closing Their Outlets in Malaysia

Remember Bubba Gump Shrimp Co.? It is popularised by the movie ‘Forest Gump’ by Tom Hanks many years ago? Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. Malaysia is closing their outlets in Malaysia.

In a Facebook post on their official Facebook Page, Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. posted a closure notice.

Closure Notice

After almost 10 years of business, the management of Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. restaurant the Curve and Citta Mall outlets will be closing its doors permanently today, 1sst March 2018.

Thank you for your support and your cherished friendship. We had enjoyed serving.

On their description, they posted

‘*CORRECTION TO PREVIOUS POST*
Dear customers, it is with heavy heart to inform that Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. outlets at the Curve and Citta Mall are closed permanently today. We thank you for your support and we enjoyed serving you. Till next time Shrimpers!’

There are three outlets of Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. in Malaysia. They closed down The Curve and Citta Mall outlet so left the Sunway Pyramid outlet.

Our first experience with Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. was in Bali many years ago as they had the popular ‘Forest Gump’ bench. Back then, there was no Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. in Malaysia.

Once they opened in Sunway Pyramid, we went there to try. It is a ‘typical’ American seafood chain and more for the experience. We haven’t been visiting any Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. outlets since.

We guess they do need your support now. Visit Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. in Sunway Pyramid if you haven’t been once. Times are bad and food business is having challenging times. We know quite a number of restaurants have closed down this year in 2018. For more info, visit http://bubbagump.com.my
