RestoPros Item 20: outlets, exits & growth

In its latest FDD Item 20 (fiscal 2025, from the 2026 FDD), RestoPros reported 124 franchised outlets at year end. 8 of 91 franchised outlets open at the start of the year left the system (exit rate 8.8%, fiscal 2025), while 41 new outlets opened. Systemwide units moved 4 → 126 units over 2021–2025.

How the exit count is computedfiscal 2025

4 terminations + 0 non-renewals + 4 ceased (other) = 8 exits ÷ 91 at start = 8.8%

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 (7) 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.

A broker is usually paid by the franchisor to place you. I'm paid only by you, never by a franchisor you're considering — and the job is pressure-testing RestoPros’ numbers, including talking you out of a bad deal.
