What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Cinnabon's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, there were zero Cinnabon outlets operating in Rhode Island at the start of 2022. The provided table in Item 20 of the FDD details the number of outlets at the start of the year, outlets opened, terminations, non-renewals, outlets reacquired by the franchisor, outlets that ceased operations for other reasons, and the number of outlets at the end of the year for each state.
For a prospective franchisee, this means that Cinnabon had no presence in Rhode Island at the beginning of 2022. However, by 2024, one Cinnabon location had opened in Rhode Island. This information is crucial for understanding Cinnabon's market penetration and growth trajectory in specific regions.
It's important to note that the absence of Cinnabon locations in a state does not necessarily indicate a lack of opportunity. It could mean that the market is untapped and presents a unique opportunity for a franchisee to establish the brand in that area. Further research and discussions with the franchisor would be beneficial to assess the market potential in Rhode Island.
