What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Annex Brands' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, there was one PostalAnnex/PostalAnnex+ retail center in Oregon that ceased operations for other reasons during 2022. The table provides data on the status of franchised outlets from 2022 to 2024. It includes the number of outlets at the start of the year, outlets opened, terminations, non-renewals, outlets reacquired by the franchisor, outlets that ceased operations for other reasons, and the number of outlets at the end of the year.
Specifically, for Oregon in 2022, there were 17 outlets at the start of the year, 1 outlet opened, and 1 outlet ceased operations for other reasons, resulting in 17 outlets at the end of the year. This data point is important for potential franchisees to consider as it provides insight into the stability and potential risks associated with operating an Annex Brands franchise in Oregon.
Understanding the reasons behind outlets ceasing operations can be crucial for prospective franchisees. While the FDD specifies that one outlet in Oregon closed for 'other reasons,' it does not elaborate on what those reasons might be. It would be prudent for potential franchisees to inquire with Annex Brands about the specific causes of these closures to better assess the challenges and opportunities in the Oregon market.
