How much can I earn by owning a Safe Ship franchise?

As with any new franchised business, there should be a solid return on your investment and profit potential. The specific franchisee's salary and the revenue from a Safe Ship business will depend on many factors. One way to check on the potential revenues or profits earned from a Safe Ship franchise investment is to analzye the franchisor's Item 19 within their Franchise Disclosure Document. This is called an earnings claim. 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 average gross revenues. This type of financial disclosure is not always helpful to assess profits for you directly. So review systemwide sales data with caution. As a general rule, typically profits and owner's income are correspond to the overall size of the initial investment. The larger the initial investment, the larger profits you could expect to see. Another determining factor to profitability is based on the number of locations you purchase. If you purchase multiple outlets (typically defined as Area Development Agreements), you can expect that as you open the next location, you will generate more revenue and profits overall. Demand for your products, the labor costs in your city, commercial lease rates and several other variables also play a large role in your earnings and your take-home salary. Your future returns are associated with the franchise system’s success. Your returns and owner's income is not just dependent on how well your own location performs, you need to review how well the entire franchise system is performing. Determine how the franchise company makes money and review their financial returns.
