FDD ITEM 20 · FISCAL 2022–2023
1-800-TEXTILES Item 20: outlets, exits & growth
In its latest FDD Item 20 (fiscal 2023, from the 2024 FDD · 1+ year old), 1-800-TEXTILES reported 46 franchised outlets at year end. 0 of 45 franchised outlets open at the start of the year left the system (exit rate 0.0%, fiscal 2023), while 1 new outlets opened. Systemwide units moved +2.2% over 2022–2023.
| Status (FTC) | 2022 | 2023 |
|---|---|---|
| Outlets at start | 0 | 45 |
| Opened | 45 | 1 |
| Transfers | 0 | 0 |
| Terminations | 0 | 0 |
| Non-renewals | 0 | 0 |
| Reacquired by franchisor | 0 | 0 |
| Ceased — other reasons | 0 | 0 |
| Outlets at end | 45 | 46 |
| Net change | +45 | +1 |
0 terminations + 0 non-renewals + 0 ceased (other) = 0 exits ÷ 45 at start = 0.0%
These are the three FTC Item 20 statuses in which a franchised outlet left the system — including voluntary non-renewals and outlets that ceased for other reasons, which can include sales or absorption into another franchise. Transfers (0) are resales, not exits; reacquisitions by the franchisor (0) are tracked separately. There is no official “failure rate”, and not every exit is a closure or a failure; Item 20 does not say why any outlet left. On a small starting base, a single exit moves this rate sharply.
