What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to 7 Brew's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, there were a total of 9 locations in North Carolina at the end of 2024. The table provided in Item 20 of the FDD outlines the number of outlets at the start of the year, the number of outlets opened, and the number of outlets at the end of the year for each state.
For a prospective franchisee, this information indicates the growth and presence of 7 Brew in North Carolina. Seeing an increase from 5 locations at the start of 2024 to 9 by the end of the year suggests a positive growth trajectory within the state. This could be an encouraging sign for potential franchisees looking to invest in a market with demonstrated expansion.
It's important to note that the table also includes data on terminations, non-renewals, reacquired franchises, and ceased operations. In the case of North Carolina, all these categories remained at zero for the years 2022, 2023 and 2024, suggesting stable operations with no closures or transfers of ownership back to the franchisor. This historical stability could further reassure a prospective franchisee about the brand's performance and support system in North Carolina.
