What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Bath Tune Up's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, there were 48 franchised outlets operating across all states at the end of 2024. This number reflects the total number of Bath Tune Up franchise locations that were open and operational as of December 31, 2024.
It is important to note that this figure does not include any company-owned outlets, as Bath Tune Up reported 0 company-owned locations for 2022, 2023, and 2024. The total number of outlets remained constant from the start to the end of 2024, with 48 outlets at both points. This indicates that while 9 new outlets opened, 3 ceased operations and 6 were reacquired by the franchisor, resulting in no net change in the total number of operating franchises during that year.
Prospective franchisees should consider this information in the context of Bath Tune Up's overall growth and stability. While the number of outlets remained stable in 2024, the opening of 9 new outlets suggests ongoing expansion efforts. The closures and re acquisitions, however, may warrant further investigation to understand the reasons behind these changes and their potential impact on the franchise system's health and franchisee success.
