What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Crave Cookies' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, there were no Crave Cookies outlets operating in Arizona at the start of 2022. The provided table in Item 20, which details outlet information by state and year, indicates that the number of outlets at the start of 2022 in Arizona was zero.
This information is crucial for prospective franchisees as it provides a clear picture of Crave Cookies's market presence and growth trajectory in specific regions. The absence of any operational outlets in Arizona at the beginning of 2022 suggests that the brand was either not yet established in the state or had not successfully launched any franchises by that time.
For potential franchisees considering Arizona as a target market, this data highlights both an opportunity and a risk. The opportunity lies in being among the first to establish the Crave Cookies brand in the area. The risk is that the market may not yet be familiar with the brand, requiring more extensive marketing and promotional efforts to gain traction. It's also worth noting that while there were no outlets at the start of 2022, the table shows that by 2023, two outlets had opened, indicating subsequent growth in the state.
