Stand Strong Fencing Item 20: outlets, closures & growth
In its latest FDD Item 20 (fiscal 2025), Stand Strong Fencing reported 207 franchised outlets at year end. 9 of 122 franchised outlets open at the start of the year left the system — an annualized exit rate of 7.4%— while 94 new outlets opened.
| Status (FTC) | 2021 | 2022 | 2023 | 2024 | 2025 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Outlets at start | 0 | 0 | 0 | 10 | 122 |

| Transfers | 0 | 0 | 0 | 5 | 36 |
| Terminations | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 9 |
| Non-renewals | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| Reacquired by franchisor | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| Ceased — other reasons | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| Outlets at end | 0 | 0 | 10 | 122 | 207 |
| Net change | 0 | 0 | +10 | +112 | +85 |
9 terminations + 0 non-renewals + 0 ceased (other) = 9 exits ÷ 122 at start = 7.4%
These are the three FTC Item 20 statuses in which a franchisee involuntarily or terminally leaves the system. Transfers (36) 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.
