What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Coffee News's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the total number of terminations across Canada in 2023 was 3. This figure is derived from a table that breaks down outlet data by province and year, including 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 outlets at the end of the year.
Specifically, the data reveals that in 2023, Alberta had 0 terminations, British Columbia had 0 terminations, Manitoba had 0 terminations, New Brunswick had 0 terminations, Newfoundland & Labrador had 0 terminations, Nova Scotia had 1 termination, Ontario had 2 terminations, PEI had 0 terminations and Saskatchewan had 0 terminations.
Prospective franchisees should pay close attention to these numbers as terminations can be an indicator of the health of the franchise system. High termination rates can signify issues with franchisee profitability, franchisor support, or other systemic problems. Conversely, low termination rates, as seen here, can be a positive sign, suggesting stability within the Coffee News franchise network in Canada. However, it is important to also consider the number of outlets opened and closed for other reasons to get a complete picture of franchise performance.
