What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Bft's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, at the start of 2022, there were zero company-owned Bft outlets. The table provided in Item 20 of the FDD details the status of company-owned outlets from 2022 to 2024.
Specifically, the table shows that for the year 2022, the number of company-owned outlets at the start of the year was 0, and the number at the end of the year remained 0. This indicates that Bft did not operate any company-owned outlets during 2022.
Prospective franchisees should note that Bft's business model appears to be heavily focused on franchising rather than direct company operations. This may mean that franchisees receive less direct competition from the franchisor but also less direct support from company-run locations.
