What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Epcon Communities' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, there were 6 outlets open in Iowa at the end of 2024. The table provided in Item 20 details the number of outlets at the start of the year, the number of outlets opened, terminations, non-renewals, outlets reacquired by the franchisor, outlets that ceased operations for other reasons, and the number of outlets at the end of the year for each state.
For Iowa, the number of outlets at the start of 2024 was 6, with 1 outlet opening during the year, 1 non-renewal, and 6 outlets at the end of the year. This information is based on signed Franchise Agreements and Market Area Agreements, not the total number of projects developed by franchisees.
It's important to note that these figures represent the number of signed agreements, which, beginning in April 2019, require a new Franchise Agreement and Market Area Agreement for each project. This could mean that a single franchisee might have multiple agreements, each counted as a separate outlet.
