What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Craters & Freighters Franchise Disclosure Document, there was one outlet operating in Arizona at the start of 2022. The information is based on the table summarizing outlet information for the years 2022 to 2024. The table provides a breakdown of outlets by state, 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 the number of outlets at the end of the year.
For a prospective franchisee, this indicates the existing market presence of Craters & Freighters in Arizona at that time. It's important to note that while there was one outlet at the beginning of 2022, no additional outlets were opened, and none closed, so the year ended with one outlet in operation. This information can be useful in assessing the market potential and competition in the state.
The table also shows that from 2022 to 2024, the number of Craters & Freighters outlets in Arizona remained constant. This could suggest a stable market or limited growth opportunities in the region. A potential franchisee should investigate further to understand the reasons behind the lack of change and whether there are plans for expansion in the future.
It is important to consider this data in conjunction with other factors, such as population density, economic conditions, and the demand for specialty freight services in Arizona, to make an informed decision about investing in a Craters & Freighters franchise in that state.
