How much does a DaaBIN Store franchise make?

DaaBIN Store is one of the franchisors that answers this on the record: its most recent FDD makes an Item 19 financial performance representation — actual unit earnings figures, disclosed by the franchisor itself. The headline figure is $1,165,794 in average unit revenue — read it alongside what Item 19 says about which units it covers (often only mature or top-performing locations).

DaaBIN Store franchise profit vs. revenue

Revenue is not profit. An Item 19 almost always reports sales — what a location takes in — not what an owner keeps. Out of that number come DaaBIN Store's 5% royalty, the ad fund, rent, payroll, supplies and debt service. No FDD tells you a DaaBIN Store franchise's profit, because profit depends on your site, your rent and how you run it — so treat any "DaaBIN Store franchise profit" figure quoted elsewhere as someone's estimate, not a disclosure. On $1,165,794 of revenue, a 5% royalty alone is about $58,290 a year before any other cost.

DaaBIN Store lawsuits & legal history (FDD Item 3)

DaaBIN Store's most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2024) discloses no litigation in Item 3. That is a real signal rather than a gap: the FTC Franchise Rule requires a franchisor to disclose material litigation involving itself, its predecessors, parents, affiliates and management, so an empty Item 3 in a current filing means there was nothing it was required to report. It is worth reading alongside the churn numbers — a system can have a clean Item 3 and still be losing franchisees, which is what Item 20 shows.

DaaBIN Store closures & failure rate

Before you sign, DaaBIN Store 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 DaaBIN Store'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. DaaBIN Store's latest tables show significant franchisee turnover. Its franchised-outlet closure rate — closures, terminations and non-renewals against outlets — is 83.3%, against a retail median of 4.3% — worse than the category. Net franchised outlets moved -3 to 3 in the latest reported year.

Who owns DaaBIN Store?

DaaBIN Store's franchise is offered by DaBIN Store Franchising, LLC — 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 MN CARDS; it identifies the franchisor, not necessarily the ultimate parent company behind it.
