What the FDD Doesn't Make Obvious

Key considerations beyond the disclosure

Legal History

No material litigation disclosed in Item 3.

Real Estate & Location

FDDs often understate the challenge of finding suitable real estate. Site selection, lease negotiation, and buildout timelines can significantly impact your total investment and time to open.

Working Capital Needs

Initial investment ranges often assume a best-case scenario. Many franchisees need additional working capital during the ramp-up period, especially in the first 6-12 months of operation.

No Revenue Disclosure

Without Item 19 data, you'll need to conduct your own due diligence on unit economics by speaking directly with existing franchisees.
