According to Batteries Plus Bulbs' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, a total of 24 franchised stores ceased operations for other reasons, and no stores were terminated or not renewed in 2022. Additionally, one company-owned store in Florida closed during 2022. In total, 25 stores closed in 2022.

It is important to note the distinction between different categories of store closures. 'Terminations' typically refer to closures initiated by the franchisor due to violations of the franchise agreement. 'Non-renewals' occur when a franchisee decides not to extend their agreement at the end of its term. 'Ceased Operations / Other Reasons' can encompass a variety of situations, including voluntary closures by the franchisee due to poor performance, relocation, or other unforeseen circumstances. 'Reacquired by Franchisor' means the franchisor bought back the franchise.

For a prospective Batteries Plus Bulbs franchisee, these figures highlight the importance of understanding the reasons behind store closures. While terminations and non-renewals may indicate issues with franchisee performance or satisfaction, a high number of closures due to 'Other Reasons' could signal broader challenges within the system, such as market saturation or changing consumer preferences. It is advisable to discuss these trends with the franchisor and current franchisees to gain a deeper understanding of the factors that can impact a store's success.
