What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Bft's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, there were zero franchises in Kansas that ceased operations for 'other reasons' during 2024. The provided table tracks outlet data, including openings, terminations, non-renewals, re acquisitions by the franchisor, and instances of ceased operations for other reasons.
Specifically, the table indicates that for Kansas in 2024, there was one outlet opened, and zero terminations, non-renewals or re acquisitions. The 'Ceased Operations – Other Reasons' column shows a value of 0, meaning no Bft franchises in Kansas closed for reasons other than termination, non-renewal, or reacquisition by Bft during that year. At the end of 2024, there was 1 outlet in operation.
Prospective franchisees should pay close attention to this data, as a high number of closures for 'other reasons' could indicate underlying issues with the franchise system's support, market saturation, or other factors impacting franchisee success. In this case, the 'other reasons' closures are low, but further investigation into the specific reasons behind such closures, should they occur, is always prudent during due diligence.
