What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Belocal's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, there were zero Belocal outlets operating in Idaho at the start of 2024. The provided table tracks the number of outlets at the start of the year, outlets opened, outlets reacquired from a franchisee, outlets closed, outlets sold to a franchisee, and the number of outlets at the end of the year for the years 2023, 2024, and 2025.
For a prospective franchisee, this data indicates the recent history of Belocal's presence in Idaho. The fact that there were no outlets at the start of 2024, and that one outlet opened and was then reacquired during 2024, suggests that the brand's presence in Idaho is relatively new and potentially unstable.
It is important to note that while the table provides a snapshot of outlet activity, it does not offer insights into the reasons behind store closures or re acquisitions. A prospective franchisee should investigate further to understand the market dynamics in Idaho and the factors that may have contributed to the changes in outlet numbers. This information can help in assessing the risks and opportunities associated with opening a Belocal franchise in Idaho.
