What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Carvel's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, there were no terminations of Carvel outlets in Missouri during 2022. The provided table in Item 20 of the FDD details outlet information by state and year, including the number of terminations. For Missouri in 2022, the table indicates '0' terminations. This suggests that no Carvel franchises in Missouri ceased operations due to termination by Carvel during that year.
This information is relevant for prospective franchisees as it provides insight into the stability and performance of Carvel franchises in specific states. A low number of terminations can be seen as a positive indicator, suggesting that franchisees are generally successful in operating their businesses. Conversely, a high number of terminations could raise concerns about the support provided by the franchisor or the viability of the business model in that region.
It is important to note that this data only reflects terminations and does not include other reasons for ceased operations, such as non-renewals or re acquisitions by the franchisor. Therefore, while no Carvel franchises were terminated in Missouri in 2022, it does not necessarily mean that no franchises closed for other reasons. A prospective franchisee should consider this information in conjunction with other factors, such as the number of new outlets opened and the overall financial performance of franchises in the area, to gain a comprehensive understanding of the franchise's potential in Missouri.
