Pizza Hut shutters all 17 Western New York locations

Pizza Hut has announced it is permanently closing all 17 locations in Western New York. Those locations include Bath, Corning, Olean, Hornell and Elmira. The franchise owner had closed them temporarily because of COVID-19, but this week decided to pull the plug all-together. A spokesperson said “Pizza Hut has new franchisees coming into the New York region, and they are hopeful we will be able to serve our customers in this area again in the future."
