FDD ITEM 20 · FISCAL 2023–2025
Bee Organized Item 20: outlets, closures & growth
In its latest FDD Item 20 (fiscal 2025), Bee Organized reported 43 franchised outlets at year end. 2 of 34 franchised outlets open at the start of the year left the system — an annualized exit rate of 5.9%— while 11 new outlets opened. Systemwide units moved +91.3% over 2023–2025.
| Status (FTC) | 2023 | 2024 | 2025 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Outlets at start | 13 | 23 | 35 |
| Opened | 10 | 12 | 11 |
| Transfers | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| Terminations | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| Non-renewals | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| Reacquired by franchisor | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| Ceased — other reasons | 0 | 0 | 2 |
| Outlets at end | 23 | 35 | 44 |
| Net change | +10 | +12 | +9 |
0 terminations + 0 non-renewals + 2 ceased (other) = 2 exits ÷ 34 at start = 5.9%
These are the three FTC Item 20 statuses in which a franchisee involuntarily or terminally leaves the system. Transfers (0) are resales, not exits; reacquisitions by the franchisor (0) are tracked separately. There is no official “failure rate” — this annualized exit rate is the disclosed, measurable floor.
