GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — A downtown doughnut shop said in a Facebook post on Thursday that it has closed its doors due to the “problem of the increasing amount of homeless” in front of their business.

Propaganda Doughnuts, located at 117 Division Avenue, officially closed on July 3 after two and a half years in business.

“It was too much to ask our customers to accept being harassed and approached by panhandlers,” the post said.

The doughnut shop said in the post it tried various solutions but it is was impossible to “maintain a successful food establishment on the 100 block of South Division.”

“This area is no longer acceptable for customers who just want to stop in and get some great doughnuts and coffee,” the post said.

The posted ended with the business thanking its customers and that it hopes a solution for the “problems” can be found so it can reopen.

The post has since been deleted from Propaganda Doughnuts’ Facebook page. Below, you can read the full post before it was removed:
