What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Belocal's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Texas had the most outlets at the end of 2025. The FDD shows that Texas had 15 Belocal outlets at the close of 2025. This number is derived from starting with 18 outlets, opening 12 new ones, reacquiring 3 from franchisees, and closing 12.
It is important to note that the tables provided in Item 20 of Belocal's FDD include both franchised and company-owned outlets. Therefore, the total number of outlets in a state represents the sum of both types. This distinction is crucial for prospective franchisees to understand the overall market presence and competitive landscape in different regions.
Prospective franchisees should carefully examine Item 20 to understand the growth trends, closures, and ownership types in their target states. This information can inform their business plan and risk assessment. Understanding why some states have more closures or re acquisitions can be valuable in predicting success.
