NURSE NEXT DOOR Item 20: outlets, closures & growth
In its latest FDD Item 20 (fiscal 2024), NURSE NEXT DOOR reported 73 franchised outlets at year end. 19 of 74 franchised outlets open at the start of the year left the system — an annualized exit rate of 25.7%— while 18 new outlets opened. Systemwide units moved +46.0% over 2022–2024.
| Status (FTC) | 2022 | 2023 | 2024 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Outlets at start | 33 | 50 | 74 |
| Opened | 21 | 30 | 18 |
| Transfers | 10 | 1 | 6 |
| Terminations | 2 | 2 | 8 |
| Non-renewals | 0 | 0 | 1 |
| Reacquired by franchisor | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| Ceased — other reasons | 2 | 4 | 10 |
| Outlets at end | 50 | 74 | 73 |
| Net change | +17 | +24 | -1 |
8 terminations + 1 non-renewals + 10 ceased (other) = 19 exits ÷ 74 at start = 25.7%
These are the three FTC Item 20 statuses in which a franchisee involuntarily or terminally leaves the system. Transfers (6) 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 NURSE NEXT DOOR's numbers, including talking you out of a bad deal.
