Jackson's Cracker Barrel shuts down permanently.

The Cracker Barrel restaurant in Jackson, Mississippi, has permanently closed due to struggles in rebounding after the pandemic. The company will assist impacted employees and managers by offering them employment at a nearby location. The water crisis in Jackson last fall also affected the restaurant, which was forced to close for several days. Jackson City Council President Ashby Foote said the council needs to attract more businesses to the city and fill the now-empty buildings along the I-55 corridor.
