It is important to note that the financial performance representation is based on past performance, and there is no guarantee that a new franchisee will achieve similar results. Fat Shack explicitly states that individual results may differ, and there is no assurance of selling as much as the reported averages or top performers.
Prospective franchisees should carefully consider these figures, keeping in mind that these are gross sales figures and do not reflect the costs of goods sold, operating expenses, or net profit. The FDD advises reviewing Items 5, 6, and 7 for information on fees and expenses associated with operating a Fat Shack restaurant. It is also crucial to request and review the written substantiation for this financial performance representation, which Fat Shack will make available at their headquarters in Fort Collins, Colorado.
