How many Beehive Homes company-owned locations were operating at the end of 2024?

According to Beehive Homes' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, at the end of 2024, there were zero company-owned homes operating. The provided table, "Table No. 4 Status of Company-Owned Homes For Years Ended December 31, 2024/2023/2022," indicates that the number of company-owned homes at the start of 2024 was zero, and the number at the end of 2024 remained zero. This suggests that Beehive Homes focuses primarily on franchising rather than operating company-owned locations.

For a prospective franchisee, this information highlights that Beehive Homes' revenue and support are likely derived from franchise fees and royalties rather than the direct operation of care homes. This could mean that the franchisor's success is closely tied to the success of its franchisees, potentially leading to a strong support system. However, it also means that the franchisee will not be competing with company-owned locations.

It is important for potential franchisees to further investigate the support and training provided by Beehive Homes, as well as the performance of existing franchised locations. Understanding the dynamics between the franchisor and franchisees is crucial in assessing the overall health and potential of the franchise system. This information, combined with a thorough review of the FDD and conversations with current franchisees, will help in making an informed decision about investing in a Beehive Homes franchise.
