What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Circle K's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, there were 565 Circle K outlets in Arizona at the end of 2025, according to Table No. 10, which tracks projected openings for Motor Fuel Businesses. This number reflects an increase of 12 outlets during 2025. At the start of 2025, there were 553 Circle K locations. None were reacquired from franchisees, sold to franchisees, or closed during the year.
However, Table No. 6, which provides a systemwide outlet summary for motor fuel locations, shows a different count. According to this table, Circle K had 586 outlets in Arizona at the end of 2025. This figure is based on 582 stores at the beginning of the year, with 4 opening and none closing.
The discrepancy between these two tables suggests that they track different subsets of Circle K locations. Table 10 appears to focus on 'projected openings', while Table 6 provides a broader 'systemwide outlet summary'. A prospective franchisee should clarify with Circle K the reasons for the differing outlet counts and which table provides a more accurate representation of the current Circle K store landscape in Arizona.
Understanding the nuances between different reporting tables is crucial for making informed investment decisions. It highlights the importance of thoroughly reviewing the FDD and asking the franchisor for clarification on any inconsistencies or discrepancies.
