What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Crowne Plaza's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, there was one outlet operating in Massachusetts at the end of 2024. The provided table in Item 20 outlines the number of outlets at the start of the year, any changes during the year (openings, terminations, non-renewals, re acquisitions, or ceased operations), and the number of outlets at the end of the year for each state.
Specifically, for Massachusetts in 2024, the table shows that there was one outlet at the start of the year, zero outlets opened, zero terminations, zero non-renewals, zero re acquisitions by the licensor, and zero ceased operations for other reasons. Therefore, the number of outlets at the end of 2024 remained at one.
This information is valuable for prospective franchisees as it provides a clear picture of the brand's presence and stability in specific states. The fact that no outlets closed or changed hands in Massachusetts during 2024 could be seen as a positive sign. However, the absence of new openings might also suggest limited growth opportunities in that particular market.
