Pan-Asian restaurant chain Wagamama is being put up for sale by its private equity¹ owner, it has been reported.

有报道称，泛亚联锁饭店我家妈妈将被其私人股份所有者拍卖。

Lion Capital bought Wagamama in 2005

Majority owner Lion Capital is hoping to sell the company for as much as £250m, according to the Sunday Times.

The UK private equity（私人股本） group, which bought an 88% stake in Wagamama for £102m in 2005, has not been available for comment.

Wagamama has rapidly grown since it opened its first restaurant in 1992, and now has 105 outlets²（销售点，品牌折扣店） .

These include 66 in the UK, which employ 2,300 people, and a further 39 branches overseas.

Wagamama's most recent annual report showed that its sales for the year to April 2009 rose 13% to £101m.

Back in 2007, Lion Capital had proposed floating Wagamama on the stock market, but this was abandoned as the credit crunch³（信贷紧缩） took hold.
