What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Belocal's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, there is conflicting information regarding the number of Belocal outlets that closed in Florida during 2025. One table indicates that zero Belocal outlets closed in Florida during 2025. This table also shows that one outlet opened, resulting in one outlet at the end of the year.
However, another table provides different data, stating that there were 13 Belocal outlets in Florida at the start of 2025, with 9 outlets opening and 12 ceasing operations for other reasons. This table indicates that 10 outlets were operating in Florida at the end of 2025.
Due to these discrepancies, a prospective franchisee should seek clarification from Belocal regarding the actual number of outlets that closed or ceased operations in Florida during 2025. Understanding the reasons behind any closures is crucial for assessing the stability and performance of Belocal franchises in that state.
