What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Chesters's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the assumed average size for an in-line or food court restaurant is 1,200 square feet. However, the document states that the actual size of a Chesters restaurant will depend on the specific location chosen by the franchisee.
For prospective franchisees, this means that while Chesters uses 1,200 square feet as a baseline for estimating costs, the actual square footage—and therefore costs—can vary. Factors influencing the final size include the availability of space at the chosen location and the franchisee's specific needs.
It's important for potential Chesters franchisees to carefully evaluate potential locations and consider how the size of the space will impact build-out costs, rent, and overall operational efficiency. Understanding these factors is crucial for accurate financial planning and ensuring the long-term success of the franchise.
