What was the total number of Best Brains outlet transfers in 2024?

According to Best Brains' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, there were a total of 6 outlet transfers in 2024. This figure is derived from Table No. 2, which specifically tracks transfers of outlets from franchisees to new owners, excluding transfers to the franchisor or its affiliates. The transfers occurred across multiple states, including California (2 transfers), Illinois (1 transfer), Maryland (1 transfer), Minnesota (1 transfer), and Texas (1 transfer).

For a prospective Best Brains franchisee, this information provides insight into the stability and desirability of existing franchise locations. A higher number of transfers could indicate a more active market for resales, potentially offering opportunities to acquire an established center. However, it could also signal challenges within the franchise system, prompting further investigation into the reasons behind these transfers.

It's important to note that this data only reflects transfers to new owners and does not include closures, terminations, or non-renewals. A comprehensive understanding of outlet turnover requires analyzing these factors in conjunction with the transfer data. Prospective franchisees should inquire about the reasons for transfers and the performance history of transferred locations to assess the potential risks and rewards associated with acquiring an existing Best Brains franchise.
