Companies

Care with Love operates a very small network of just 4 outlets, though it posted a strong average unit volume of nearly $2.94 million, a significant positive ✓. The franchise requires a moderate total investment of $132k-$207k with a $49k fee and 5% royalty, and it has no litigation or bankruptcy history ✓. Growth is minimal, with only 1 outlet opened and none closed in the last year, indicating a cautious or early-stage expansion ⚠. The high AUV is promising, but the tiny scale and slow growth suggest limited operational proof beyond a few units.

LivAway Suites, LLC is a nascent franchise with only 4 total outlets, all opened in the last year, indicating a very early-stage concept with no proven track record. ✓ The absence of litigation, bankruptcy, and closures is a positive sign, but the lack of Item 19 financial performance data is a significant ⚠ risk, making it impossible to assess unit-level economics. The total investment is substantial, ranging from $11.2M to $13.7M, which is a high barrier to entry for a brand with no established performance history. ⚠ Prospective franchisees should proceed with extreme caution, as the high capital requirement and lack of financial disclosure create a speculative investment profile.

Babes in Business is a micro-scale franchise with only 4 total outlets, though it showed positive momentum by opening 2 units last year with no closures. ✓ The total investment is exceptionally low at $20,575 to $21,300, with a modest $5,000 franchise fee, making it one of the most affordable entry points in franchising. ⚠ However, the 15% royalty fee is notably high relative to the low investment, and the absence of Item 19 financial performance data means prospective franchisees cannot verify unit-level profitability or revenue expectations. The lack of litigation or bankruptcy history is a neutral factor, but the tiny system size and lack of financial disclosure present significant uncertainty for potential investors.

Reis & Irvy's Inc. FroYo Kiosk operates at a very small scale with only 4 total outlets, all opened in the last year, indicating a nascent brand with no proven track record of stability. ✓ The relatively low franchise fee of $10,000 and a wide investment range ($139,950 - $1,114,150) offer flexibility, but the 12% royalty is high for a kiosk model with a modest average unit volume of $73,730. ⚠ Significant red flags include both litigation and bankruptcy history, which raise serious concerns about the franchisor's financial health and legal stability. ⚠ While there were no closures last year, the brand's tiny footprint and lack of historical data make this a high-risk, unproven opportunity.

Plunj is a very early-stage franchise with only 4 total outlets, though it shows strong recent growth with 3 openings and zero closures in the last year. The total investment range of $414,700 to $716,033 is significant for such a small system, and the $45,000 franchise fee plus 6% royalty are standard for the category. ✓ The Item 19 disclosure provides an average unit volume of $263,135, offering a critical financial benchmark for prospective franchisees. ⚠ The primary risk is the extremely limited operating history and lack of proven multi-unit scalability, making this a high-risk, high-reward opportunity.

KYOCHON is a very early-stage franchise with only 4 total outlets, having added just 1 in the last year and recorded no closures, indicating a cautious but stable start. The total investment range of $493,500 to $1,038,500 is substantial for a brand with such limited scale, and the $40,000 franchise fee is notable given the lack of an Item 19 financial disclosure. ⚠ The absence of any financial performance representation is a significant risk for prospective franchisees, as there is no data to validate unit-level economics or profitability. ✓ On the positive side, the franchise has no litigation or bankruptcy history, and the 4.5% royalty is relatively low, which could help with cash flow if the concept proves viable.

Townhouse Franchising, LLC is a nascent system with only 4 total outlets, having added 1 net new location last year with no closures, indicating a stable but very small-scale operation. The total investment range of $604,100 to $759,700 is substantial for a brand with no Item 19 financial disclosure, which is a significant ⚠ risk as prospective franchisees cannot evaluate unit-level profitability. The $40,000 franchise fee and 7.0% royalty are standard, but the lack of financial performance representations makes it difficult to assess the business model's viability. ✓ The absence of litigation and bankruptcy history provides some comfort, though the extremely limited scale and lack of financial data suggest a high-risk, unproven opportunity.

Summit Building Services is a micro-scale franchise with only 4 total outlets, but it boasts an extraordinarily high average unit volume of $7.2 million, suggesting a niche, high-value commercial cleaning model. ✓ The low total investment range of $25,500 to $46,200 and a modest $9,000 franchise fee create a very accessible entry point for a business with such high reported revenue. ⚠ However, the 9.0% royalty is steep for a service-based franchise, and the brand has virtually no growth trajectory, having added just one outlet in the last year with zero closures. The lack of litigation and bankruptcy is a positive, but the tiny system size and lack of expansion raise concerns about scalability and long-term support.

Wheelmaxx Inc. operates a very small network of just 4 total outlets with no recent unit growth, as it opened and closed zero locations last year. The total investment range of $268,700 to $596,500 is moderate, but the absence of an Item 19 financial disclosure is a significant ⚠ risk, leaving prospective franchisees without validated performance data. A ⚠ litigation flag further elevates the risk profile, suggesting potential legal or operational challenges. Given the stagnant scale and lack of financial transparency, this franchise presents a high-risk opportunity for investors.

REHABNEEDS Franchise LLC is a micro-scale operation with only 4 total outlets and zero net growth in the past year, indicating a stagnant or pre-revenue stage. The franchise fee is $25,000 with a 6% royalty, and the total investment ranges from $56,900 to $285,310, which is relatively low for a franchise. ✓ The absence of litigation and bankruptcy is a clean slate, but ⚠ the lack of any new openings or closures suggests the concept has not yet proven its ability to scale or attract franchisees. The presence of Item 19 provides some financial transparency, but the tiny footprint and flat growth trajectory make this a high-risk, unproven opportunity.

Mpc Franchise operates a tiny 4-unit network with zero franchise fees, but the total investment range of $210K to $369K is moderate. ✓ The system shows strong unit economics, reporting an average unit volume of $3.48M with a 6% royalty, and it added 1 outlet last year with no closures. ⚠ However, the extreme lack of scale (only 4 units) means there is virtually no proven multi-unit track record or brand recognition to de-risk the investment. ✓ No litigation or bankruptcy history provides a clean baseline, but the growth trajectory is too nascent to assess long-term viability.

VK Franchising Systems, LLC operates a very small network of just 4 outlets, though it shows a clean bill of health with no litigation or bankruptcies and zero closures last year. ✓ The franchise offers a remarkably low total investment range of $40,743 to $53,589, paired with a disclosed average unit volume (AUV) of $708,627, which suggests a potentially strong return on a modest capital outlay. ⚠ However, the 7.0% royalty is relatively high for such a low-cost franchise, and the single outlet opened last year indicates a glacial growth pace that raises questions about system support and scalability. This is a high-risk, high-reward micro-concept that demands deep due diligence on the franchisor's ability to replicate its apparent unit-level success.

Swish 365 Franchise, LLC is a very early-stage concept with only 4 total outlets, having added 2 last year with no closures, indicating a positive but nascent growth trajectory. ✓ The total investment range of $114,400 to $340,100 is relatively low, and the $15,000 franchise fee is modest, lowering the barrier to entry. ⚠ However, the absence of an Item 19 financial disclosure is a significant red flag, as prospective franchisees have no validated data on unit-level revenue or profitability to assess the business model. While the lack of litigation or bankruptcy is a neutral positive, the tiny system size and lack of financial performance representation make this a high-risk, speculative opportunity.

Neehee’s operates at a very small scale with only 4 total outlets and zero net growth over the past year, indicating a stagnant or nascent franchise system. ✓ The absence of litigation and bankruptcy provides a clean legal and financial record, which is a positive signal for prospective franchisees. ⚠ However, the total investment range of $924,500 to $1,480,000 is high for a brand with such limited market validation and no recent expansion. The $60,000 franchise fee and 5% royalty are standard, but the lack of any new openings or closures suggests the concept has not yet proven its ability to scale or attract new operators.

Nora Mental Health, LLC is a very early-stage franchise with only 4 total outlets, all opened in the last year and none closed, indicating a clean launch with zero attrition. ✓ The total investment range of $103,500 to $228,000 is relatively low for a healthcare concept, and the Item 19 disclosure of an average unit volume (AUV) of $563,569 is a strong positive signal for unit economics. ⚠ However, the lack of a royalty fee is unusual and may raise questions about the franchisor's long-term revenue model and support infrastructure. The absence of litigation and bankruptcy provides a clean legal slate, but the tiny system size means there is very limited operational history for prospective franchisees to evaluate.

Dahan Hospitality Group is a very small, early-stage franchise with only 4 total outlets, though it shows a clean bill of health with no litigation or bankruptcy history. ✓ The low total investment range of $98,350 to $267,500 and a modest $25,000 franchise fee make it an accessible entry point for prospective franchisees. ✓ The brand demonstrated positive, albeit minimal, growth by opening 1 net new outlet last year with zero closures, suggesting stable unit economics. ⚠ The primary risk is the extreme lack of scale, which means limited brand awareness, operational proof, and bargaining power for franchisees.

Yumberry Bowl operates at a very small scale with only 4 total outlets, and its growth trajectory is flat, having opened 1 and closed 1 in the last year. The total investment range of $45,647 to $145,347 is relatively low, and the franchise fee of $25,000 is modest. ✓ The brand provides an Item 19 financial disclosure showing an average unit volume (AUV) of $473,496, which is a strong revenue figure for the investment level. ⚠ However, the net zero outlet growth and tiny system size present significant risk, as the concept has not demonstrated scalable success or brand momentum.

Pet Dental USA Franchising, LLC is a very early-stage concept with only 4 total outlets, having added just 1 new location in the past year with no closures. ✓ The absence of litigation and bankruptcy filings provides a clean legal slate, and the Item 19 disclosure offers some financial transparency for prospective franchisees. ⚠ However, the total investment range of $383,435 to $628,235 is substantial for a brand with minimal operational history and a tiny footprint, presenting significant risk. The $25,000 franchise fee and 5.0% royalty are standard, but the lack of proven scalability makes this a high-risk, unproven opportunity.

Fictiv Local is a micro-scale franchise with only 4 total outlets, though it opened 5 last year and reported zero closures, indicating a very early but positive growth trajectory. The franchise fee is low at $15,000, but the total investment range is exceptionally wide ($16,500 - $890,500), suggesting vastly different business models or significant hidden costs. ⚠ A major red flag is the lack of an Item 19 financial disclosure, meaning there is no verifiable data on unit economics or profitability for prospective franchisees. ✓ The absence of litigation and bankruptcy is a positive, but the 11% royalty is high for a brand with such limited operational history and no financial performance data.

Mr. Baguette Group Corp. is a micro-scale franchise with only 4 total outlets and zero net growth over the past year, indicating a stagnant or nascent system. ✓ The absence of litigation and bankruptcy provides a clean legal record, but ⚠ the lack of Item 19 financial performance data leaves prospective franchisees without critical revenue or profitability benchmarks. The total investment range of $350,000 to $450,000, combined with a $30,000 franchise fee and 7% royalty, represents a moderate capital commitment for a concept with no proven expansion track record. ⚠ The complete lack of recent openings or closures suggests the brand is either in a holding pattern or has not yet demonstrated scalable market demand.

Early Bird is a very small, early-stage franchise with only 4 total outlets and a modest net gain of just 1 unit opened in the last year, indicating a nascent and unproven growth trajectory. ✓ The franchise offers a relatively low royalty rate of 4.0% and provides an Item 19 financial disclosure, which is a positive for transparency. ⚠ However, the presence of litigation is a significant red flag, and the total investment range of $397,500 to $1,703,000 is extremely wide, suggesting a lack of operational standardization. This franchise carries high risk for prospective franchisees due to its minimal scale, legal issues, and undefined unit economics.

Wolfnights is a very small, early-stage franchise with only 4 total outlets and zero net growth in the last year, indicating a stalled expansion. ✓ The brand does report a strong average unit volume (AUV) of $1,044,571, which is a positive sign for existing unit economics, though the total investment range of $256k to $580k is moderate. ⚠ The lack of any new openings or closures suggests the system may be in a holding pattern, and with no litigation or bankruptcy history, the primary risk is the unproven scalability of the concept.

Hott Franchising LLC operates a very small network of just 4 total outlets with no recent growth or closures, indicating a stagnant or nascent system. ✓ The absence of litigation and bankruptcy is a positive, but the $50,000 franchise fee and total investment of $271,500 to $392,610 are significant for a brand with no proven expansion. ⚠ The 6% royalty adds ongoing cost pressure, and the lack of any new openings in the last year raises concerns about market traction or franchisee demand. This is a high-risk, unproven opportunity for investors seeking a growing brand.

Facialworks Franchising LLC is a very small, early-stage franchise with only 4 total outlets and zero net growth in the last year, indicating no current expansion momentum. ✓ The absence of litigation and bankruptcy is a clean slate, but the high franchise fee of $60,000 and total investment reaching up to $853,700 represent a significant capital commitment for a brand with a minimal operating footprint. ⚠ The 6% royalty is standard, yet the lack of any new openings or closures suggests the concept may be stalled or still in a validation phase. Prospective franchisees should scrutinize the Item 19 financial performance representation closely, as the limited unit count provides little data to assess profitability or system-wide success.

Shot of Art is a micro-scale franchise with only 4 total outlets, having opened 1 and closed 0 in the last year, indicating a nascent but stable growth trajectory. ✓ The franchise offers a relatively low total investment range of $137,150 to $330,050, with a $49,000 franchise fee and a 6.0% royalty, making it accessible for entry-level investors. ✓ The presence of Item 19 financial disclosure provides transparency, and the absence of litigation or bankruptcy history reduces immediate legal or financial red flags. ⚠ However, the extremely small system size means limited brand recognition and operational track record, posing higher risk for franchisees betting on unproven scalability.

Full Psycle Franchising, LLC operates a boutique indoor cycling concept with a very small footprint of just 4 total outlets, having opened 1 location last year with no closures. The franchise fee is a steep $100,000, and the total investment ranges from $327,660 to over $1 million, placing it in a high-cost category for a fitness concept. ✓ The brand shows positive, albeit minimal, growth with a net gain of one unit and no litigation on record. ⚠ A significant red flag is the disclosed bankruptcy history, which demands careful due diligence regarding the franchisor's financial stability and long-term viability.

The total investment range of $475,700 to $799,600 is substantial for a concept with such limited operational history. ✓ The absence of litigation and bankruptcy provides a clean legal slate. ⚠ However, the high franchise fee of $50,000 and 7% royalty, combined with no recent openings, present significant risk for prospective franchisees evaluating an unproven system.

Slice House by Tony Gemignani is a very early-stage franchise with only 4 total outlets and zero net growth in the last year, indicating no current expansion momentum. The total investment range of $406,300 to $1,147,600 is significant for a brand with such a limited footprint, and the $24,000 franchise fee plus 5% royalty adds to the cost burden. ✓ The brand does provide an Item 19 financial disclosure, offering some transparency on potential performance. ⚠ However, the presence of litigation is a notable red flag that warrants careful due diligence before considering this opportunity.

The total investment range of $544,060 to $805,650 is substantial for a brand with such limited scale and no proven growth trajectory. ✓ The Item 19 disclosure provides an average unit volume (AUV) of $442,010, which offers some financial transparency, and there is no litigation or bankruptcy history. ⚠ However, the high franchise fee of $40,000 and 5% royalty, combined with a net decline in units, present significant risk for prospective franchisees.

NEUAGE HEALTH + WELLNESS is a nascent concept with only 4 total outlets and a single opening in the past year, indicating a very early-stage and unproven growth trajectory. ✓ The absence of litigation and closures is a positive sign for a new brand, but the lack of an Item 19 financial disclosure is a significant ⚠ risk, preventing any assessment of unit-level profitability. ⚠ The franchise fee of $100,000 is high relative to the total investment range of $406,500 - $539,000, and the 7% royalty adds considerable ongoing cost. This franchise presents a high-risk, high-investment opportunity with no financial performance data to support its viability.

HSID FRANCHISING, LLC operates a very small network of just 4 outlets with zero net growth over the past year, indicating a stagnant or nascent system. The franchise fee is low at $5,000, but the total investment range of $115,700 to $584,700 is wide, suggesting significant variability in build-out or equipment costs. ✓ The absence of litigation and bankruptcy filings is a positive sign of corporate stability. ⚠ However, the 10% royalty on a small, non-growing base presents a high ongoing cost relative to the limited brand scale and proven market traction.

The Bagel Nook Franchising LLC presents a compelling unit-level economics profile with an exceptionally high Average Unit Volume (AUV) of $1,500,000 ✓, which strongly justifies its total initial investment of $603,225 to $1,164,500. The franchise maintains a clean historical record with no bankruptcy or litigation issues ✓, and it successfully avoided any unit closures last year ✓. However, the brand currently operates at a minimal scale with only 4 total outlets and opened just 1 new unit last year ⚠, indicating an extremely limited market presence. Prospective franchisees must weigh the robust financial performance against the overarching risks of partnering with such an early-stage, slow-growing concept ⚠.

Weighless MD Franchises, LLC is a micro-scale franchise with only 4 total outlets, though it shows a promising growth trajectory having doubled its footprint with 2 new openings and zero closures last year. ✓ The low franchise fee of $15,000 and a highly accessible total investment range of $24,550 to $196,500 create a low barrier to entry for prospective franchisees. ✓ The 5.0% royalty fee is standard, and the corporate profile is exceptionally clean with no reported bankruptcies or litigation. ✓ However, the extremely limited scale of the brand means franchisees will be early adopters facing the inherent risks of an unproven, localized market presence. ⚠

Doughnuttery is a very small, niche franchise with only 4 total outlets, having added just 1 new location in the past year with no closures. The total investment range of $175,400 to $321,700 is moderate, though the $30,000 franchise fee and 6.0% royalty are standard for a food concept. ✓ The franchise provides an Item 19 financial disclosure, offering transparency on potential performance, and has no litigation or bankruptcy history. ⚠ The primary risk is the extremely limited scale and slow growth, which suggests an unproven or difficult-to-replicate business model.

Dapper Doughnut Franchise operates a very small system of only 4 outlets, with a concerning net closure of 2 units last year against just 1 opening, indicating significant contraction. The total investment range of $350,000 to $643,000 is moderate, but the presence of both litigation and bankruptcy history are major ⚠ red flags that demand thorough due diligence. ✓ The franchise does provide an Item 19 financial disclosure, offering some transparency, though the negative growth trajectory and legal issues overshadow this positive. Given the high risk profile and shrinking footprint, prospective franchisees should approach this opportunity with extreme caution.

KARG Franchise Systems LLC operates a very small network of just 4 outlets, having added only 1 new location last year with no closures, indicating a nascent but stable growth trajectory. The total investment range of $407,910 to $680,433 is substantial, and the $35,000 franchise fee plus a 5% royalty are standard for the industry. ✓ A key positive is the Item 19 disclosure showing an average unit volume (AUV) of $956,594, which suggests strong revenue potential for franchisees. ⚠ However, the extremely limited scale of 4 units means there is minimal operational history or proven system-wide performance to evaluate.

P-FIT THE PLATINUM STANDARD OF FITNESS is a very small, early-stage franchise with only 4 total outlets, though it shows a positive growth trajectory with 2 openings and 0 closures in the last year. ✓ The franchise provides an Item 19 financial disclosure showing a strong average unit volume (AUV) of $905,869, which is attractive for a relatively low total investment range of $155,500 to $370,000. ⚠ However, the 7.0% royalty fee is on the higher side for the fitness industry, and the very limited scale (4 units) means there is minimal operational proof or brand recognition beyond the disclosed AUV. ✓ No litigation or bankruptcy history reduces immediate legal risk, but prospective franchisees should weigh the high royalty against the promising unit economics and the lack of a proven multi-unit track record.

Blue Collar Workwear is a micro-scale franchise with only 4 total outlets and zero net growth over the past year, indicating a stagnant or pre-growth phase. The total investment range of $115,000 to $461,000 is moderate, but the absence of an Item 19 financial disclosure is a significant ⚠ red flag, as it prevents prospective franchisees from evaluating unit-level revenue or profitability. The low $15,000 franchise fee and 5% royalty are attractive on the surface, but without any financial performance data or recent openings, the concept carries high uncertainty. ✓ No litigation or bankruptcy history provides a clean legal record, but the lack of growth and disclosure makes this a high-risk, speculative opportunity.

The total investment range of $99,950 to $155,500 is relatively low, but the $75,000 franchise fee and 10% royalty are high for such a nascent system. ⚠ A major red flag is the absence of Item 19 financial performance data, making it impossible to assess unit-level economics or validate the business model. ✓ The clean legal record with no litigation or bankruptcy provides some comfort, but the tiny scale and lack of financial disclosure present significant risk for prospective franchisees.

Alkalign Franchising, LLC is a micro-scale franchise with only 4 total outlets and zero net growth in the last year, indicating a stagnant or pre-growth phase. ✓ The absence of litigation and bankruptcy provides a clean legal slate, but the lack of an Item 19 financial disclosure is a significant ⚠ risk, leaving prospective franchisees without validated earnings data. The total investment range of $173,250 to $521,000, paired with a $40,000 franchise fee and 5% royalty, positions it as a moderate-cost opportunity, yet the tiny footprint and no recent openings suggest limited operational proof of concept.

The total investment range of $769,750 to $1,406,750 is substantial, placing it in the high-cost category for a medical spa concept, which is a significant barrier to entry. ✓ The franchise provides an Item 19 financial disclosure, offering transparency on potential performance, and has no litigation or bankruptcy history, which are positive indicators of stability. ⚠ However, the very small system size and high upfront costs create considerable risk, as the brand lacks the proven scalability and operational track record of a larger network.

The total investment range is extremely wide at $81,000 to $687,000, suggesting significant variability in build-out or location costs, though the franchise fee is low at $10,000. ⚠ A major red flag is the absence of Item 19 financial performance data, making it impossible to assess unit-level economics or validate the business model. ✓ On the positive side, there is no litigation or bankruptcy history, but the net outlet decline and lack of transparency present substantial risk for prospective franchisees.

Orange County Bagel is a very small, early-stage franchise with only 4 total outlets, which presents limited brand recognition and operational proof. ✓ The absence of litigation and bankruptcy is a clean slate, and the single outlet opened last year with zero closures indicates a stable, if minimal, growth trajectory. ⚠ However, the total investment range of $204,200 to $386,900 is relatively high for a bagel concept with such a tiny footprint, and the 5.5% royalty adds ongoing cost pressure. This franchise may appeal to local entrepreneurs seeking a hands-on food business, but the lack of scale and track record makes it a high-risk, unproven investment.

Sugar Sugar Franchise Systems, LLC is a very small, early-stage concept with only 4 total outlets, though it shows a clean bill of health with no litigation or bankruptcies and a positive growth trajectory of 2 net new openings last year. ✓ The franchise offers a relatively accessible entry point with a $35,900 franchise fee and a total investment range of $142,875 to $365,680, which is moderate for the food sector. ✓ A key positive is the disclosure of Item 19 financials, showing a strong average unit volume (AUV) of $507,083, which suggests healthy revenue potential for a small chain. ⚠ However, the extreme lack of scale (4 units) means the financial data is based on a statistically insignificant sample, and the 6% royalty is a standard but notable ongoing cost that must be weighed against the reported AUV.

Ringmaster Society LLC operates a very small system of just 4 total outlets, with a modest growth trajectory of 1 net new opening and no closures in the last year, indicating stable but nascent operations. ✓ The franchise offers a disclosed Item 19, providing some financial transparency, and carries no litigation or bankruptcy history. ⚠ However, the total investment range of $240,300 to $590,750 is substantial for a brand with such limited scale and brand recognition, and the 6% royalty fee adds ongoing cost pressure. This concept may appeal to early-stage investors seeking a low-competition niche, but the lack of a proven multi-unit track record presents significant execution risk.

The franchise requires a significant total investment of $470,000 to $886,500, which is paired with a somewhat aggressive 8.0% royalty rate on such a small system ⚠. However, the investment is backed by strong foundational transparency and a clean corporate history, as the franchisor provides an Item 19 financial disclosure and has absolutely no litigation or bankruptcy filings ✓. Prospective franchisees must weigh the complete lack of recent momentum against the operational transparency of a clean, established brand ✓.

Nowlogy is a very small franchise with only 4 total outlets, having added just 1 in the past year with no closures, indicating a nascent but stable growth trajectory. The total investment range of $36,500 to $262,100 is broad, suggesting significant variability in build-out or business model requirements, though the $20,000 franchise fee is relatively low.
