How much can I earn by owning a Uncle Louie G franchise?
As with any new franchised business, there needs to be a good return on your investment and profit potential. The specific franchisee's income and the profits from a Uncle Louie G business will depend on a lot of different factors. One way to validate the potential revenues or profits generated from a Uncle Louie G franchise investment is to analzye the franchisor's Item 19 within their FDD. This is called an earnings claim. This is not required within a franchisor's disclosure and approximately 68% of all franchise companies that we analyze each year will disclose financial performance data within Item 19 of their FDD. Some franchise companies may disclose limited information such as overall systemwide sales. This type of information is not always helpful to determine profitability for you directly. So review overall sales data with caution. As a general rule, usually earnings and owner's income are equitable to the overall size of the initial investment. The larger the initial investment, the larger return you should anticipate
