What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Zoomin Groomin's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the median annual sales for the bottom third of vehicles is $134,928. This data is based on reports submitted by franchisees as Gross Revenues, which include all income from vehicle operations, net of any tax, adjustment, credit, or refund. The bottom third of Zoomin Groomin vehicles are typically operated by franchisees who own an average (median) of one territory and operate one vehicle.
Prospective franchisees should note that this figure represents the median, meaning half of the vehicles in the bottom third performed above this level, and half performed below. The range of annual sales for this group varied from $162,673 to $44,302. It is important to consider that 63.6% of the vehicles in the bottom third met or exceeded the average annual sales of $126,890.

Given the wide range of sales within the bottom third, understanding the specific challenges and opportunities in their target market is essential for making an informed investment decision.
