What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to Deka Lash's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, there was one Deka Lash outlet operating in North Carolina at the start of 2022. This information is based on the table summarizing the status of franchised outlets for the years 2021 to 2023.
Specifically, the table provides a breakdown of outlets at the start of the year, outlets opened, terminations, non-renewals, reacquired outlets, ceased operations, and franchised outlets operating at year-end for each state. For North Carolina in 2022, the 'Outlets at Start of Year' column indicates a value of 1.
This means that if a prospective franchisee were to consider opening a Deka Lash studio in North Carolina in 2022, they would have been entering a market with a limited existing presence. The data suggests a relatively new market for Deka Lash at that time, which could present both opportunities and challenges in terms of market penetration and brand recognition.
