The Limited

Private Equity-owned Companies in Times Square 

1114 6th Ave.

Private equity owner: Sun Capital Partners (pending)

Deal announced: July 9

Proposed value: $50 million

Employees: n/a

A perennial money loser for parent company Limited Brands, The Limited apparel stores was taken over in July 2007 by private equity firm Sun Capital partners for $50 million. In May, a separate buyout firm, Golden Gate Capital, acquired sister company Limited Express in a deal valued at $602 million. Given the financial difficulties of this once-popular retail chain, the company’s future may be…limited.
