What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Byrider's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, there were 11 Byrider outlets operating in Illinois at the start of 2021. This information is based on data compiled as of December 31 of each year, as shown in the Systemwide Outlet Summary table. The table provides a year-by-year breakdown of outlet activity, including the number of outlets at the start of the year, outlets opened, terminations, non-renewals, outlets reacquired by the franchisor, outlets ceasing operations for other reasons, and the number of outlets at the end of the year.
For a prospective franchisee, this indicates the existing market presence of Byrider in Illinois at that time. It's important to note that this number can fluctuate due to various factors such as terminations or new openings. Reviewing the subsequent years, 2022 and 2023, shows how the number of outlets has changed, which can provide insights into the stability and growth of the Byrider franchise in Illinois.
Understanding the historical data on outlet numbers helps potential franchisees assess the brand's performance and market dynamics in a specific state. While the FDD provides this historical snapshot, further due diligence, including speaking with current and former franchisees, is essential to gain a comprehensive understanding of the franchise's operations and market conditions in Illinois.
