What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Christian Brothers Automotive's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, at the end of 2023, there were a total of 2 Christian Brothers Automotive outlets in the state of Kentucky. At the start of 2023, there was 1 outlet, and during the year, 1 additional outlet was opened. There were no terminations, non-renewals, re-acquisitions by the franchisor, or other reasons for ceased operations during that year.
For a prospective franchisee, this indicates the growth and presence of Christian Brothers Automotive in Kentucky. The addition of a new outlet suggests potential market expansion and brand recognition in the state. However, with only 2 locations, the brand is still relatively new to the state.
It is important to note that past performance does not guarantee future results. A prospective franchisee should conduct thorough market research to assess the viability of opening a Christian Brothers Automotive franchise in their specific location within Kentucky, considering factors such as local competition, demographics, and economic conditions. They should also contact existing franchisees in Kentucky to gain insights into their experiences and challenges.
