What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Goldfish Swim School's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, there were five instances of franchise transfers to new owners in 2022. Specifically, one Goldfish Swim School franchise each was transferred in Florida, Virginia, and New York during that year.
This information is relevant for prospective franchisees as it provides insight into the resale market and the potential for future transfer of ownership. Understanding the frequency and location of franchise transfers can help a new franchisee assess the stability and desirability of Goldfish Swim School franchises in different regions.
It is important to note that the data only reflects transfers to new owners other than the franchisor. This means that any instances where Goldfish Swim School reacquired a franchise are not included in these figures. Reviewing the list of current and former franchisees in Exhibit G of the FDD may provide additional context.
