What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Bumper Man's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, there were zero non-renewals of franchises in 2023. The provided table in Item 20 details the franchise outlet information for the years 2022, 2023, and 2024, broken down by state. The 'Non Renewals' column indicates the number of franchises that were not renewed during each year.
Specifically, for the year 2023, the 'Non Renewals' column consistently shows a value of 0 across all states and in the 'Totals' row. This means that no Bumper Man franchises reached the end of their franchise agreement term and were not renewed for another term during that year.
This information is crucial for potential franchisees as it provides insight into the stability and satisfaction of existing franchisees within the Bumper Man system. A high number of non-renewals could indicate issues with profitability, franchisor-franchisee relations, or other systemic problems. The absence of non-renewals in 2023 suggests a healthy franchise system where franchisees are generally content to continue operating under the Bumper Man brand.
