What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Chick Fil A's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, there were 213 Chick Fil A outlets opened across all states in 2022. This number is derived from Table No. 1, which provides a system-wide outlet summary for the years 2022 to 2024, specifically for Chick Fil A franchised and company-operated restaurants. The table includes details about the number of outlets at the start and end of each year, as well as the number of outlets opened, terminated, non-renewed, reacquired by the franchisor, or ceased operations for other reasons.
For a prospective Chick Fil A franchisee, this data indicates the growth and changes within the Chick Fil A system. The number of new openings can reflect the brand's expansion strategy and market demand. It's also important to note the other factors that contribute to outlet changes, such as terminations or re acquisitions, as these can provide insights into the stability and management of existing locations.
It is important to consider that the number of 'opened' outlets includes both new restaurants and company-owned restaurant operations purchased by an Operator from Chick-fil-A. This distinction is crucial for understanding the true number of newly established Chick Fil A locations versus transfers of ownership. Additionally, Chick Fil A also has Licensed Units, but according to TABLE NO. 5, Chick-fil-A does not intend to open any company-owned Chick-fil-A Licensed Units.
