What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Atwell Suites' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, at the start of 2022, there were zero Atwell Suites outlets. The provided table in Item 20 outlines the number of outlets at the start of the year, outlets opened, reacquired, closed, sold, and the number of outlets at the end of the year for 2022, 2023, and 2024.
For a prospective franchisee, this indicates that Atwell Suites is a relatively new franchise system. The absence of any outlets at the beginning of 2022 suggests that the brand was either just starting to franchise or had not yet opened any franchised locations by that time.
This information is crucial for potential franchisees as it provides insight into the brand's growth trajectory and market presence. A new franchise system may present both opportunities and risks. The opportunity lies in potentially securing prime locations and being part of the brand's initial expansion phase. The risk involves the uncertainty associated with a relatively unproven business model and the limited availability of performance data from existing franchisees.
