What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Belocal's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, there was one Belocal outlet open in Oklahoma at the end of 2023. The FDD provides a table summarizing outlet information by state and year. For Oklahoma in 2023, the table indicates there were zero outlets at the start of the year, zero outlets opened during the year, one outlet reacquired from a franchisee, zero outlets closed, zero outlets sold to a franchisee, and one outlet at the end of the year.
This information is valuable for potential franchisees as it provides a historical view of Belocal's presence and activity in Oklahoma. The fact that an outlet was reacquired suggests a change in ownership or management, which could be due to various factors such as underperformance, franchisee exit, or strategic decisions by Belocal. A prospective franchisee might want to investigate the reasons behind this reacquisition to better understand the market dynamics and potential challenges in Oklahoma.
It's important to note that while the table shows one outlet at the end of 2023, it also indicates that this outlet was reacquired from a franchisee rather than being a new opening. This distinction could influence a franchisee's perception of the brand's growth and stability in the region. Furthermore, the table also shows that in 2024, the one outlet that was open closed, and in 2025, one outlet opened. This information could indicate instability in the Oklahoma market.
