Questions to ask the franchisor

Generated from what this brand's FDD data does not disclose — ask SpeeDee Worldwide directly:

Territory — what the FDD says (Item 12)

Exclusive territory — classified from Item 12, p.44 of the brand's FDD

Under this brand's Item 12 rule, the franchisor grants an exclusive territory: while your agreement runs, the franchisor may not place another franchisee — or operate a competing company unit — inside your territory's boundaries (subject to the carve-outs in the FDD). Areas inside an existing franchisee's territory are therefore not available to a new buyer.

The FDD's own words (Item 12): “this franchisor grants an exclusive territory as described in its FDD.”

Where SpeeDee Worldwide operates today

Why two unit counts? The Key figures above cite 78 franchised units (Item 20, p.63) — the franchisor's reported franchised-unit total. The map above sums Item 20, Table 3 (franchised outlets by state at fiscal year-end), which totals 69. The two Item 20 figures are compiled on different bases, so they need not match.

What is NOT available

Not available: any area inside an existing franchisee's exclusive territory while that agreement runs. Existing units sit in: CA, CO, LA, MA, NC, RI, SC, TX, VA — a specific address near an existing unit is governed by that territory's boundaries.

Only the franchisor can confirm availability.
