What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to B Bops's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the net change in the total number of outlets during 2024 was 0. This means that the total number of B Bops outlets remained constant throughout the year. At the beginning of 2024, there were 12 total outlets, and by the end of the year, the number remained at 12.
Specifically, the number of franchised outlets remained stable at 2 for the entire year. Similarly, the number of company-owned outlets also did not change, staying at 10 throughout 2024. This indicates that B Bops did not open any new locations, close any existing ones, or experience any changes in ownership type (franchised vs. company-owned) during that year.
For a prospective franchisee, this data suggests a period of stability for B Bops in 2024, with no expansion or contraction in the number of outlets. While stability can be positive, a potential franchisee might want to inquire about B Bops's growth plans and strategies for future expansion to understand the brand's long-term vision and potential for increased market presence.
