Frequently asked questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to open a OMEX franchise?

What do OMEX franchise owners earn?

What is OMEX's franchise failure rate?
SBA 7(a) loan charge-off data is not available for OMEX (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.

Is OMEX a good franchise to buy?
FranchiseVerdict rates OMEX as a B-grade franchise with a risk score of 58 out of 100, 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.
