Risk & Legal
Early-stage, opaque franchisor with unverified financials, minimal unit count, and questionable going concern status presents significant risk despite no litigation.

- 04MINORWide investment range ($42,300–$342,538) suggests inconsistent unit economics or undefined model clarity
- 05MINORRoyalty structure (7–10%) on modest $16,824 weekly revenue ($875,648 annual) creates thin margin risk
- 06MINOR10-year term with $35,000 franchise fee is aggressive for 4-unit system with no brand recognition data
