A once beloved fast-food staple will officially close a few more restaurants across Texas this week as eateries across the nation continue to shutter underperforming locations as a financial strategy amid an ever-changing economy.

Shake Shack is the latest fast-food chain to announce that they will be closing nine struggling locations across the U.S. in an effort to cut down on cost of operation. The popular chain joins a growing list of American fast-food staples shuttering establishments across the country amid financial turmoil including Applebee's, Popeyes, Red Lobster, and more.

Shake Shack CEO Rob Lynch recently revealed why the chain felt the need to close nine locations, including a few in Texas citing "underperformance" in an email obtained by USA Today.

"After careful consideration, we've made the tough decision to close a small group of Shacks due to various factors, including underperformance. We remain focused on supporting our team members through this transition and look forward to continuing our growth, opening many more locations across the country."

Texas locations closing their doors for good as of Wednesday (September 25) include the Shake Shack in Houston Galleria and in Montrose.
