In which states is the proposed City Wide franchise registration on file or will shortly be on file?

According to City Wide's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the proposed franchise registration is either on file or will shortly be on file in none of the states. The document does state that the proposed registration is effective in California, Hawaii, Illinois, Maryland, Michigan, New York, Virginia, and Wisconsin.

It is important for a prospective franchisee to understand the registration status of the franchise in their state, as this can affect the legality of offering and selling the franchise. Registration typically involves submitting the FDD and other required documents to the state franchise regulator for review and approval. Some states require franchise registration, while others do not.

If a state requires registration and City Wide is not yet registered there, the franchisor may not be able to offer or sell franchises in that state until the registration is complete. A prospective franchisee should confirm the registration status with City Wide and the relevant state authorities before proceeding with the franchise purchase.
