A prospective franchisee should inquire about the total number of outlets opened across all locations to gain a comprehensive understanding of the brand's growth.
While the provided data focuses on company-owned stores, it does not include information on franchised outlet openings. This distinction is crucial for potential franchisees, as it directly impacts their investment and operational strategies. Understanding the growth trajectory of both company-owned and franchised locations is essential for assessing the overall health and expansion of the Desi District franchise system.
