What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to C12 Group's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, there was one outlet operating in California at the end of 2022. The provided table, which summarizes the status of franchised outlets, indicates that California had one outlet at the start of 2022, opened no additional outlets during the year, and ended the year with one outlet. There were no recorded closures or sales of outlets to franchisees in California during 2022.
This information is relevant for prospective franchisees as it provides a snapshot of C12 Group's presence and activity in California. A single outlet suggests a limited existing network within the state. This could mean more market opportunity for a new franchisee, but also potentially less brand recognition and support from established peers.
It's important to note that this data reflects only the specific period of 2022. To gain a comprehensive understanding, a potential franchisee should also consider the performance and changes in outlet numbers over several years, as well as the overall market conditions in California. Further research into the reasons behind the lack of new outlet openings in California during 2022 could also prove valuable.
