What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Crave Cookies' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, there were multiple years with zero franchise outlet transfers. Specifically, in Florida, there were zero transfers in 2021, 2022, and 2023. Nevada also reported zero transfers in 2021 and 2022, and 2023. Utah had zero transfers in 2021 and 2022.
Looking at the total transfers across all states, Crave Cookies reported zero transfers in both 2021 and 2022. This indicates that existing franchisees did not sell their outlets to new owners during these years.
For a prospective franchisee, a low number of transfers could indicate stability within the franchise system. However, it could also mean that franchisees are not finding it easy or profitable to sell their locations. It would be prudent to investigate the reasons behind these figures by speaking with current and former Crave Cookies franchisees.
