According to Big Apple Bagels' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, there was one outlet operating in South Carolina at the start of 2023. The table provided in Item 20 details the number of outlets at the start of the year, any changes during the year, and the number of outlets at the end of the year. This information is useful for prospective franchisees to understand the brand's presence and stability in specific states.

The data shows that in South Carolina, the number of Big Apple Bagels outlets remained constant at one from the start of 2022 through the end of 2024. No outlets were opened, terminated, non-renewed, reacquired, or ceased operations for other reasons during this period. This suggests a stable, albeit small, presence for Big Apple Bagels in South Carolina.

For a potential franchisee, this information indicates that the South Carolina market may not be a high-growth area for Big Apple Bagels, but it does represent a consistent operation. It would be prudent for a prospective franchisee to investigate the performance of the existing outlet and understand the market dynamics in South Carolina before investing in a new location.
