Does the Crave Cookies table provide information on the location of closed Crave Cookies outlets?

According to the 2025 Crave Cookies FDD, Exhibit H contains information on former franchisees, including the city and state of their last known outlet. Specifically, Exhibit H includes the name, city, and state of every franchisee who had an outlet terminated, canceled, not renewed, or otherwise ceased to do business under the franchise agreement during the most recently completed fiscal year. This exhibit also includes franchisees who have not communicated with Crave Cookies within 10 weeks of the disclosure document issuance date.

This means that while the FDD does not provide a comprehensive list of all closed Crave Cookies locations, it does offer details on outlets that closed due to specific circumstances like termination or non-renewal within the past fiscal year. It also includes contact information, if available, for franchisees who operated those locations. This information can be valuable for prospective franchisees to understand the reasons behind outlet closures and to potentially gather insights from former operators.

However, it's important to note that the information is limited to the most recent fiscal year and may not cover all types of closures (e.g., transfers to new owners). Additionally, some former franchisees may have signed confidentiality agreements that restrict their ability to discuss their experiences with Crave Cookies. Therefore, while Exhibit H provides some insight into closed locations, it is not a complete record and should be supplemented with further due diligence.

Table 1, 'Systemwide Outlet Summary For Years 2021 to 2024,' provides the number of outlets closed per year. Table 3, 'Status of Franchised Outlets For Years 2021 to 2024,' lists terminations and non-renewals. Table 5, 'Projected Openings As Of December 31, 2025' lists projected openings. These tables do not list specific locations of closed Crave Cookies franchises.
