What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Del Taco's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, there were no franchise terminations between 2022 and 2024. The provided tables in Item 20 detail outlet information by state and year, including the number of terminations.
Specifically, the tables show the changes in the number of Del Taco outlets across various states from 2022 to 2024. The column labeled "Terminations" indicates the number of franchise agreements that were terminated during each year in each state. In all states, the number of terminations is listed as 0 for each year between 2022 and 2024.
This information is crucial for potential franchisees as it provides insight into the stability and health of the Del Taco franchise system. The absence of terminations suggests that franchisees are generally successful in maintaining their businesses, though other factors such as non-renewals or closures for other reasons should also be considered. A prospective franchisee should investigate the reasons for non-renewals or closures to gain a comprehensive understanding of potential challenges within the Del Taco system.
