How many Bft unit franchise agreements have been signed but the outlets not yet opened in California?

According to Bft's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, as of the end of the fiscal year, there was one unit franchise agreement signed in California for which the outlet had not yet opened. This means that Bft has granted someone the rights to open a franchise in California, but that location was not yet operational at the time the data was compiled.

For a prospective franchisee, this indicates the level of Bft's recent expansion activity and brand development in California. It suggests that there is current interest in the Bft franchise opportunity within the state. However, the single unopened unit also suggests potential delays in the opening process, which could be due to various factors such as site selection, permitting, construction, or franchisee training.

It is important to note that the table also lists 'Projected New Franchised Outlets in the Next Fiscal Year'. For California, the projection is zero. This may indicate that Bft does not anticipate any new franchised locations opening in California in the coming year, beyond the one that is already under agreement. A potential franchisee should inquire with Bft about their development plans for California and the reasons behind the current number of unopened units.
