What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Bens Soft Pretzels's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, a single store operating within a Walmart location and having one mobile addendum (SSM3) reported a total revenue of $394,821 in 2023. This figure represents the gross sales for stores open and operating for at least one year as of the end of 2023. These sales figures are based on information provided by franchisees.
It's important to note that these figures are historical and may not be indicative of future performance. The FDD explicitly states that individual results may differ, and there is no guarantee that a new franchisee will achieve the same level of sales. Prospective franchisees should consider this variability and conduct their own due diligence to assess the potential financial performance of a Bens Soft Pretzels franchise in their specific location.
The FDD also clarifies that the reported gross sales include all revenues derived directly or indirectly from the business, including on-premises sales and monies derived at or away from the business. However, sales taxes collected from customers and coupon redemptions are excluded from the gross sales calculation. This definition provides clarity on what constitutes revenue for the purpose of the financial performance representation.
Prospective franchisees should carefully review the entire Item 19 of the FDD and request written substantiation for the financial performance representation to gain a comprehensive understanding of the potential financial performance of a Bens Soft Pretzels franchise. They should also contact existing franchisees to discuss their experiences and gather additional insights.
