What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Checkers's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, at the end of the 2024 fiscal year, Checkers had 107 company-owned outlets, according to one table. Another table indicates Checkers had 122 company-owned outlets at the end of the 2024 fiscal year. The fiscal year ended on December 30, 2024. These figures reflect a decrease from the 109 and 126 company-owned outlets Checkers had at the start of 2024, respectively.
It is important to note the discrepancy in the number of company-owned stores at the end of the 2024 fiscal year, as the FDD provides two different numbers. This difference could be due to various accounting methods or how the data was categorized.
A prospective franchisee should seek clarification from Checkers regarding this discrepancy to understand the true number of company-owned stores and the reasons for the changes in outlet numbers over the past few years. Understanding the performance and changes in company-owned stores can provide valuable insights into the overall health and direction of the Checkers franchise system.
