This information is based on the system-wide outlet summary provided in Item 20 of the FDD, which details outlet data for the years 2022 to 2024. The FDD specifies that the year-end numbers are as of January 2, 2023, for fiscal year 2022, January 1, 2024, for fiscal year 2023, and December 30, 2024, for fiscal year 2024.
For a prospective franchisee, this indicates the existing market presence of Checkersrallys in Louisiana at that time. It's important to note that during 2023, one outlet closed, reducing the total to 15 by the end of the year. In 2024, two more outlets closed, resulting in 13 outlets by the end of 2024.
This data can help potential franchisees evaluate the stability and performance of Checkersrallys in Louisiana. While the number of outlets decreased over these years, further investigation into the reasons for these closures would be prudent. Understanding the dynamics of the Louisiana market, including factors such as competition, local economic conditions, and specific challenges faced by those closed locations, would be a crucial part of the due diligence process.
