What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Big Apple Bagels's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, a total of 2 outlets ceased operations for reasons other than terminations, non-renewals, or reacquisition by the franchisor in 2022. This is based on the data provided in Item 20, which details the status of franchised outlets from 2022 to 2024.
Specifically, the data is broken down by state, showing the number of outlets that ceased operations for 'other reasons.' In 2022, Michigan and Nevada each had one outlet that ceased operations for other reasons. No other state reported any such closures.
For a prospective franchisee, this information is crucial in understanding the stability and potential risks associated with owning a Big Apple Bagels franchise. While terminations, non-renewals, and re acquisitions represent specific, often negative, events, 'other reasons' could encompass a range of factors, such as voluntary closures due to poor performance, disputes, or other unforeseen circumstances. Investigating the reasons behind these closures can provide valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities within the Big Apple Bagels franchise system.
It is important to note that the reasons for these 'other' closures are not detailed in this table. A potential franchisee should inquire with Big Apple Bagels about the specific reasons for these closures to gain a better understanding of the factors that may contribute to an outlet ceasing operations.
