Frequently asked questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to open a Arcpoint franchise?
The total investment to open a Arcpoint franchise ranges from $166K – $310K, with an initial franchise fee of $55K. This includes real estate, equipment, inventory, and working capital as disclosed in their Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD).
What do Arcpoint franchise owners earn?
No average owner earnings figure for Arcpoint is on file. Item 19 — where a franchisor may disclose what its outlets earn — is voluntary under the FTC Franchise Rule, and we have not established what this brand's FDD says. Item 20 of the FDD lists current and former franchisees; asking them directly is the standard way to fill this gap.
What is Item 19 in the Arcpoint FDD?
The FDD section where a franchisor may disclose financial performance of its outlets. Disclosure is optional and formats vary; figures are typically gross sales, which is revenue before expenses, not profit. FranchiseVerdict extracts these figures directly from the Arcpoint FDD and qualifies whose outlets they describe.
What is Arcpoint's franchise failure rate?
Based on SBA 7(a) loan data, Arcpoint has a charge-off rate of 16.7% across 35 loans, meaning 16.7% of franchise loans were charged off. Charge-off rates are one proxy for franchise risk, though they do not capture all closures. This data comes from FOIA-sourced SBA lending records.
How many Arcpoint franchise locations are there?
As of their most recent FDD filing, Arcpoint has 118 total units in the United States, including 118 franchised units and 0 company-owned units. 13 new units were opened in the latest reporting year.
Is Arcpoint a good franchise to buy?
FranchiseVerdict rates Arcpoint as a B-grade franchise with a verdict score of 50 out of 100 (higher is better), based on our analysis of investment costs, revenue data, SBA loan performance, and growth trends. Our rating is based solely on publicly available FDD and government data; we recommend speaking with current franchisees before making any investment decision. This is not investment advice.
