Very sad news this week for a local business that has been a part of Strathroy’s south end for the last 17 years. myFM has learned that this week, 36 employees with Strathroy’s Crabby Joes will be out of a job come this Sunday. Employees were called in for an emergency meeting this week where they were told of their termination at the restaurant that opened back in 2007 with local Owner Wade Milliken who unfortunately passed away in April of this year. Since the death, there had been speculation that the business and franchise would be able to remain in the hands of a local resident and employee but this week that proved to not be the case. Reports are indicating that a Chuck’s Roadhouse outlet could be the next tenant in that building.
