How many Chesters franchises were transferred to new owners in Texas during 2024?

According to Chesters's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, there were zero franchise transfers to new owners in Texas during 2024. This information is detailed in Table No. 2, which specifically tracks transfers of outlets from franchisees to new owners, excluding transfers back to Chesters itself. The table provides a state-by-state breakdown of these transfers for the years 2022, 2023, and 2024.

For a prospective Chesters franchisee, this data point is important for understanding the stability and turnover within the franchise system. A high number of transfers might indicate issues with franchisee profitability or satisfaction, while a low number, as seen in Texas for 2024, could suggest a stable and well-managed market. However, it is important to consider this data in the context of other factors, such as the total number of Chesters locations in Texas and the reasons behind any transfers that did occur in previous years.

It is also worth noting that the table excludes transfers back to Chesters, so it does not reflect instances where the company reacquired a franchise. To gain a comprehensive understanding, a potential franchisee should also inquire about the reasons for any franchise terminations, non-renewals, or re acquisitions by Chesters, as detailed in other sections of the FDD. Understanding the full scope of franchise transitions can provide valuable insights into the health and dynamics of the Chesters franchise system.
