ROI & LBO modelsSingle-unit · 25-unit portfolio · editable
Coffee Junkiez / Pizza Junkiez makes no financial performance representation in Item 19 of its FDD - a voluntary item under the FTC Franchise Rule - so no unit revenue figures are disclosed. The return models need a revenue figure to start from, and the operating costs that turn gross sales into a profit are in no FDD. Enter your own and the calculator runs on your assumptions — nothing here is modelled until you do.

The total investment to open a Coffee Junkiez / Pizza Junkiez franchise ranges from $241K – $478K, with an initial franchise fee of $35K. This includes real estate, equipment, inventory, and working capital as disclosed in their Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD).
What do Coffee Junkiez / Pizza Junkiez franchise owners earn?
Coffee Junkiez / Pizza Junkiez makes no financial performance representation in Item 19 of its FDD - a voluntary item under the FTC Franchise Rule - so no unit revenue figures are disclosed. Declining to publish one is lawful and is not evidence of how the outlets perform. It does mean that less about this brand can be verified from its filing, and the FranchiseVerdict grade - an editorial assessment, not investment advice - reflects that. Item 20 of the FDD lists current and former franchisees; asking them directly is the standard way to fill this gap.
Who owns Coffee Junkiez / Pizza Junkiez?
Coffee Junkiez / Pizza Junkiez is franchised by Double J Franchising, Inc.. Source: FDD Item 1, 2025 filing.
What is Item 19 in the Coffee Junkiez / Pizza Junkiez 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 Coffee Junkiez / Pizza Junkiez FDD and qualifies whose outlets they describe.
What is Coffee Junkiez / Pizza Junkiez's franchise failure rate?
SBA 7(a) loan charge-off data is not available for Coffee Junkiez / Pizza Junkiez (fewer than 10 loans on file). Charge-off rates are one way to gauge franchise risk, but not all franchise loans go through the SBA program. We recommend reviewing turnover and closure data in the FDD and speaking with current franchisees.
How many Coffee Junkiez / Pizza Junkiez franchise locations are there?
As of their most recent FDD filing, Coffee Junkiez / Pizza Junkiez has 3 total units in the United States, including 1 franchised units and 2 company-owned units. 1 new units were opened in the latest reporting year.
Is Coffee Junkiez / Pizza Junkiez a good franchise to buy?
FranchiseVerdict rates Coffee Junkiez / Pizza Junkiez as a C-grade franchise with a verdict score of 44 out of 100 (higher is better). The grade is a deterministic score built from six weighted dimensions — financial health, unit economics, unit growth, scale, legal, and transparency — then calibrated against SBA loan charge-off rates and FDD age. Transparency is one of the six, so a filing that discloses less scores lower on that dimension than one that discloses more. 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.
