What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Anago's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, there was one franchise transferred in Arizona during 2022. This information is based on Table No. 2, which details the transfers of domestic outlets from franchisees to new owners, excluding transfers back to Anago itself. The table provides a state-by-state breakdown of these transfers for the years 2022, 2023, and 2024.
For a prospective Anago franchisee, this data point provides insight into the resale market for Anago franchises in Arizona. A transfer indicates that an existing franchisee has sold their business to a new owner. One transfer in 2022 suggests a limited number of existing franchisees were looking to exit the system in that state during that year. This could be due to various factors, such as retirement, relocation, or a change in business interests.
It's important to note that this number only reflects transfers to new owners and does not include instances where Anago reacquired the franchise. The overall health and attractiveness of the Anago franchise in Arizona would require a more comprehensive analysis, including factors such as new franchise sales, terminations, and renewals. Prospective franchisees should also consider the reasons behind any transfers, which may not be fully disclosed in the FDD but could be explored during due diligence by speaking with current and former franchisees.
