Private equity firm TPG Inc is exploring options for Mendocino Farms, including a sale that could value the fast-casual restaurant chain at over $400m, according to people familiar with the matter.
Investment bank North Point is advising on a sale process for Mendocino Farms, which is not certain to lead to any deal, the sources said, requesting anonymity because the matter is confidential.
Mendocino Farms generates more than $30m of 12-months earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, according to the sources.
