Jeff's Bagel Run

Given the extremely low gross sales figures (median $93,305) compared to typical QSR franchises ($817,213-$1,534,470), what explains this significant gap and what factors drive revenue in Jeff's Bagel Run locations?

The system has grown 450% in one year from 2 to 11 units. What is the franchisor's unit growth projection for the next 3-5 years, and what are the underlying assumptions?

With only 2 units existing one year ago, how can prospective franchisees verify the financial projections and Item 19 data provided? How many units have been operating for 2+ years?

The franchise agreement identifies 20 non-curable defaults compared to only 1 curable default. Can you provide examples of the non-curable defaults and explain the reasoning behind this imbalance?

The termination clause allows for only 5 days to cure payment defaults and 10 days for other defaults. How does the franchisor handle situations where a franchisee genuinely cannot cure within these timeframes?

Personal guarantees are required from all owners holding 10% or more interest. Can you clarify the circumstances under which the franchisor would call on these guarantees?

Support & Training scored 85, falling below the typical range of 90.0-100.0 for QSR franchises. What specific training and ongoing support gaps exist, and how does the franchisor plan to address them?

Investment score is 67, below the typical range of 69.0-78.0. What is the total initial investment required, and what explains the lower score in this category?

Risk Factors scored 80, above the typical range of 60.0-78.0. What specific operational or market risks does the franchisor identify as elevated for this system?

Renewal conditions are 5, below the typical 7.0-9.0 for this category. What are these renewal conditions, and are there any performance requirements or financial obligations tied to renewal?

Zero litigation cases exist, but the system is extremely young. Has the franchisor faced any disputes with franchisees that were resolved without formal legal action?

The $3,000 renewal fee applies after 10 years. Are there additional costs or modifications required at renewal, and what is the likelihood of renewal being denied?

Can you provide detailed financial statements or Item 19 disclosures from multiple franchisees to verify the reported gross sales range of $80,350-$106,260?

How many franchisees have reached the end of their initial term or first renewal period? What percentage have renewed versus exited or not renewed?

The 2-year, 5-mile non-compete is relatively restrictive. Can you clarify whether this applies in all locations or only to territories where the franchisee operated?

What is the average unit volume (AUV) after operating costs, and how does net profit compare to the initial investment of $30,000?

Given the high percentage renewal conditions requirement and broad indemnification obligations, what percentage of franchisee disputes historically involve disagreements over renewal eligibility?

Why does the Territory score (100) significantly exceed the typical range (50.0-75.0), and what exclusive protections does this reflect in the franchise agreement?

Have any franchisees requested territory modifications or complained about encroachment despite the exclusive territory protection? If so, how were these handled?

What percentage of the 11 current units are company-owned versus franchisee-owned, and how does this influence the unit growth and financial performance data provided?
