BoConcept franchise profit — what the FDD discloses
Plainly: BoConcept does not disclose franchise profit or revenue. Its most recent FDD makes no Item 19 financial performance representation, so there is no franchisor-backed earnings figure for BoConcept — any number quoted elsewhere is an estimate, not a disclosure. The absence is itself worth weighing (65% of retail franchisors in our corpus do disclose); the fees, litigation and outlet churn BoConcept's FDD does contain are on this page. For brands that put earnings on paper, see Retail franchises with disclosed Item 19 earnings.
BoConcept lawsuits & legal history (FDD Item 3)
BoConcept's most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2024) does disclose 3 legal proceedings in Item 3 . Item 3 is the item where a franchisor must put its material legal history on the record. Two things it is not: it covers the franchisor and its predecessors, parents and affiliates, so a disclosed case is not necessarily a suit against BoConcept itself; and a disclosure is a fact, not a finding of wrongdoing — most entries are contract disputes with former franchisees, which every large system accumulates. 2 of those proceedings were brought by franchisees against the franchisor — the split that actually matters, because franchisees suing their franchisor is the signal a buyer is looking for. Item 3 of the source FDD describes each case.
BoConcept closures & failure rate
Before you sign, BoConcept will hand you a list of current owners to call as references — and they choose who's on that list. It won't include the owners who quit, got bought out, or were forced out last year. The FDD does report that number, even though the reference list leaves those people off. Below is what BoConcept's most recent filing shows, and whether it's normal for a retail of this kind.
The closest thing an FDD has to a failure rate is Item 20 — outlet openings, closures, terminations and non-renewals, reported by the franchisor. BoConcept's outlet tables did not machine-read cleanly; Item 20 of the source FDD has them.
Who owns BoConcept?
BoConcept's franchise is offered by BoConcept Franchise, Inc — the franchisor named on the cover of its most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2024), and the entity a franchisee actually signs with. That name comes straight off the filing at CA DFPI; it identifies the franchisor, not necessarily the ultimate parent company behind it.

BoConcept franchise — frequently asked
Who owns BoConcept — who is the franchisor?
BoConcept's most recently filed FDD (2024) names BoConcept Franchise, Inc as the franchisor — the entity you would actually sign the franchise agreement with, as stated on the disclosure document itself. A registry filing names the franchisor, not necessarily its ultimate parent company.
How much does a BoConcept franchise cost?
BoConcept's most recently filed FDD (Item 7) puts the total estimated initial investment at $420,900 – $877,500. That price is the franchisor's own estimate of what it takes to open, not a quote. Against retail peers it sits in the bottom quartile (median $319,750).
How much profit does a BoConcept franchise make?
BoConcept makes no Item 19 financial performance representation, so there is no franchisor-disclosed revenue or profit figure for BoConcept at all — and profit would never be disclosed even where earnings are, because it depends on your rent, labor and how you operate. Any profit figure quoted elsewhere is an estimate, not a disclosure.
Does BoConcept disclose financial performance (Item 19)?
No — BoConcept's most recent FDD makes no Item 19 financial performance representation. Its absence is worth weighing: 65% of retail franchisors in our corpus do disclose.
Are there lawsuits against BoConcept?
BoConcept's most recently filed FDD (2024) discloses 3 legal proceedings in Item 3. Item 3 covers the franchisor, its predecessors, parents and affiliates — so a disclosed case is not necessarily a suit against BoConcept itself, and a disclosure is not a finding of wrongdoing. 2 of the disclosed proceedings were brought by franchisees against the franchisor.
Is BoConcept a good franchise to buy?
Nobody can answer that from BoConcept's numbers alone — it comes down to how its investment, earnings, litigation and franchisee churn stack up against retail peers and against your own budget. Our read on this filing is medium risk. Every figure behind that read is on this page for free. If you're comparing options, the free shortlist on this page matches you with 5–10 franchises that fit your budget and industry.
