Carl’s Jr. plans to close all six locations in Thailand by the end of the month.

R&R Restaurant Group, which holds the rights to operate the burger chain, announced it could no longer bear the costs of operating the fast-food chain.

“We tried to get through it during the second half of 2021. But we were forced to import our ingredients solely from the U.S. due to the restrictions imposed by CKE Restaurants Holdings,” it said of its parent company.

The burger chain opened its first branch in Thailand in 2012 at Central Festival Pattaya Beach.

Update: After this story was published, the group announced its last day of operation will be March. 24.
