FDD ITEM 20 · FISCAL 2023–2025
Corporate Cleaning Group Item 20: outlets, closures & growth
In its latest FDD Item 20 (fiscal 2025), Corporate Cleaning Group reported 44 franchised outlets at year end. 2 of 45 franchised outlets open at the start of the year left the system — an annualized exit rate of 4.4%— while 1 new outlets opened. Systemwide units moved +35.3% over 2023–2025.
| Status (FTC) | 2023 | 2024 | 2025 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Outlets at start | 23 | 34 | 47 |
| Opened | 12 | 18 | 1 |
| Transfers | 0 | 4 | 0 |
| Terminations | 1 | 3 | 2 |
| Non-renewals | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| Reacquired by franchisor | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| Ceased — other reasons | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| Outlets at end | 34 | 47 | 46 |
| Net change | +11 | +13 | -1 |
2 terminations + 0 non-renewals + 0 ceased (other) = 2 exits ÷ 45 at start = 4.4%
These are the three FTC Item 20 statuses in which a franchisee involuntarily or terminally leaves the system. Transfers (0) are resales, not exits; reacquisitions by the franchisor (0) are tracked separately. There is no official “failure rate” — this annualized exit rate is the disclosed, measurable floor.

A broker is paid by the franchisor to place you. An independent CPA is paid by you — and the job is pressure-testing Corporate Cleaning Group's numbers, including talking you out of a bad deal.
