What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Batteries Plus Bulbs' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, there are 130 franchised stores in the top quartile based on financial performance representations. This data is derived from a subset of 520 franchise-owned stores that were in operation for the entire 2024 fiscal year, referred to as "Same Stores."
For a prospective franchisee, this indicates the number of stores that constitute the top 25% of performers in the Batteries Plus Bulbs franchise system. It's important to note that this is based on past performance and does not guarantee future results. The financial performance of a Batteries Plus Bulbs store can vary significantly based on factors such as location, management, local economic conditions, and competition.
It is crucial for potential franchisees to understand the criteria used to define the "top quartile" and how the data was collected and verified. While the FDD provides this information, further due diligence, including speaking with existing franchisees and conducting independent market research, is essential to assess the potential financial viability of a Batteries Plus Bulbs franchise.
