Does Desi District Franchise Group, LLC have any predecessors?

According to Desi District's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, Desi District Franchise Group, LLC does not have any predecessors. The FDD specifies that 'we', 'us', or 'our' refers to Desi District Franchise Group, LLC, clarifying the entity to which this statement applies. This means that there is no prior company or business entity that transferred its assets or business operations to Desi District Franchise Group, LLC.

While Desi District Franchise Group, LLC itself has no predecessors, it does have several affiliates that operate Desi District locations. These affiliates include Desi District, LLC (operating in Irving, Texas since 2016), Premier Meat Bazaar 423, Inc. (operating in Little Elm since May 2021), Desi Eats, LLC (operating in McKinney since December 2021), Desi District Plano, LLC (operating in Plano since April 2022), Premier Eldorado, Inc. (operating in Frisco since May 2022), Desi District Prosper, LLC (operating in Frisco/Prosper, TX since May 2024), Desi District Houston, LLC (operating in Houston, TX since April 2024) and TAR Distributors, LLC (located in Frisco, TX). These affiliates are separate legal entities that operate locations of the Desi District franchised business or provide products to the franchise locations.

For a prospective franchisee, this distinction is important because it clarifies the history and structure of the Desi District franchise system. While the franchise is new, with Desi District Franchise Group, LLC formed in May 2024 and offering franchises since June 2024, the concept has been tested and operated by its affiliates for several years. This could provide some reassurance regarding the viability of the business model, even though the franchising entity itself is relatively new.
