What drove the 45/100 rating
Risk Score Breakdown
- 01MEDOnly 9 units systemwide indicates extremely small, unproven franchise system with limited scale and operational support infrastructure
- 02MEDNo disclosed unit growth trajectory despite 5-year track record raises questions about expansion viability and franchisee satisfaction
- 03MINORHigh royalty burden (5% biweekly) combined with $39,500 franchise fee structure may compress margins for lower-performing locations
- 04MINORSignificant variance between average revenue ($551k) and average net income ($124.9k) suggests 22.7% net margin may not be achievable across all unit types or locations
- 05MINORHigh initial investment range ($80.1k-$154.7k) relative to unit count suggests uneven performance or territory-dependent profitability concerns
