What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Kitchen Solvers's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, there were a total of 7 terminations of franchise agreements in 2024. The data is broken down by state. For example, in Florida, there were 2 terminations, in Indiana there was 1 termination, in Missouri there were 2 terminations, and in Texas there were 2 terminations.
Termination counts can indicate the health and stability of the franchise system. Higher numbers of terminations can be a warning sign, while lower numbers suggest greater franchisee satisfaction and business success. However, it is important to consider the overall size of the franchise system when evaluating termination rates. A small number of terminations in a large system may not be significant, while the same number in a smaller system could be more concerning.
A prospective Kitchen Solvers franchisee should investigate the reasons behind terminations by speaking with current and former franchisees. Understanding why franchise agreements were terminated can provide valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities within the Kitchen Solvers system. Reviewing the complete Item 20 chart in the FDD provides a more comprehensive view of outlet turnover, including openings, non-renewals, and other reasons for closures, which can help in assessing the overall stability of the franchise network.
It is also important to note that Kitchen Solvers provides a list of current franchisees as of December 31, 2024, as well as information on franchisees who have been terminated, not renewed, or otherwise ceased business. However, the FDD also states that some current and former franchisees have signed confidentiality clauses, which may restrict their ability to speak openly about their experiences with Kitchen Solvers.
