What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Engineering For Kids Franchise Disclosure Document, the total number of outlets at the end of 2023 was 0. The table provided indicates that there were zero outlets at the start of the year, zero outlets opened during the year, zero outlets reacquired from franchisees, zero outlets closed, and zero outlets sold to franchisees, resulting in zero outlets at the end of 2023.
This suggests that Engineering For Kids may have been in a period of restructuring, had not yet begun franchising, or was not actively operating during 2023. A prospective franchisee should investigate further to understand the context behind these figures. Understanding the historical growth and changes in outlet numbers is crucial for assessing the stability and potential of the franchise system.
It is important to note that while the total number of outlets at the end of 2023 was zero, the document also provides data for specific states like Arizona and California, which had one and four outlets respectively at the end of 2023. This discrepancy suggests that the 'Total' row in the provided table may not accurately reflect the sum of all state-specific outlet data. A potential franchisee should clarify this with Engineering For Kids to get an accurate understanding of the total number of operating outlets in 2023.
