What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Checkers' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, there are two tables that provide information on the number of Checkers outlets. One table indicates that at the end of 2022, there were a total of 296 Checkers outlets, including 176 franchised and 120 company-owned. Another table indicates that at the end of 2022, there were a total of 545 Checkers outlets, including 413 franchised and 132 company-owned.
It is important to note that the FDD specifies that the year-end numbers are as of January 2, 2023, for the fiscal year 2022. This discrepancy between the two tables could be due to different accounting methods or the inclusion of different types of outlets in each table.
A prospective franchisee should clarify with Checkers which table accurately reflects the total number of outlets and the reason for the difference between the two reported figures. Understanding the composition of company-owned versus franchised locations can also help a franchisee assess the overall health and growth strategy of the Checkers system.
