How much can I earn by owning a Farmer Boys franchised business?

As with any new franchise, there should be a solid return on your investment and profit potential. The specific franchisee's income and the revenue from an Farmer Boys business depends on a variety of factors. One way to confirm the potential revenues or profits earned from a Farmer Boys franchise investment is to review the franchisor's Item 19 within their FDD. This is called a financial performance representation. This is not required within a franchisor's disclosure and approximately 68% of all franchisors that we analyze each year will disclose financial performance data within Item 19 of their FDD. Some franchisors may disclose limited information such as overall systemwide sales. This type of information is not always helpful to assess profits for you directly. So review average sales data with caution. As a general rule, typically profits and owner's salary are correspond to the overall size of the initial investment. The larger the initial investment, the higher return you should anticipate
