How much does a Dilla Enterprises franchise make?
Dilla Enterprises 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 did not machine-read cleanly from this filing, so we don't print one; Item 19 of the source FDD has the tables. See every quick-service restaurant brand that discloses earnings in the Fast food & quick-service restaurant franchises with disclosed Item 19 earnings ranking.
Dilla Enterprises 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 Dilla Enterprises's 6% royalty, the ad fund, rent, payroll, supplies and debt service. No FDD tells you a Dilla Enterprises franchise's profit, because profit depends on your site, your rent and how you run it — so treat any "Dilla Enterprises franchise profit" figure quoted elsewhere as someone's estimate, not a disclosure.
Dilla Enterprises lawsuits & legal history (FDD Item 3)
Dilla Enterprises's most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2025) 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.
Dilla Enterprises closures & failure rate
Before you sign, Dilla Enterprises 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 Dilla Enterprises's most recent filing shows, and whether it's normal for a quick-service restaurant 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. Dilla Enterprises reports no franchised units open yet — there is no operating track record to churn.
Who owns Dilla Enterprises?
Dilla Enterprises's franchise is offered by Dilla Enterprises, LLC — the franchisor named on the cover of its most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2025), 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.

Dilla Enterprises franchise — frequently asked
Who owns Dilla Enterprises — who is the franchisor?
Dilla Enterprises's most recently filed FDD (2025) names Dilla Enterprises, LLC 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 Dilla Enterprises franchise cost?
Dilla Enterprises's most recently filed FDD (Item 7) puts the total estimated initial investment at $407,351 – $762,152, with an initial franchise fee of $35,000 and a 6% royalty. That price is the franchisor's own estimate of what it takes to open, not a quote. Against quick-service restaurant peers it sits in the upper quartile (median $604,609).
How much profit does a Dilla Enterprises franchise make?
Dilla Enterprises discloses unit earnings in Item 19, but that figure is revenue — sales — not profit. Royalties (6% of gross for Dilla Enterprises), the ad fund, rent, payroll and supplies all come out of it, and no FDD discloses what an owner nets. Any Dilla Enterprises franchise profit number quoted elsewhere is an estimate.
Does Dilla Enterprises disclose financial performance (Item 19)?
Yes — Dilla Enterprises reports unit-level earnings in Item 19. The headline figure did not machine-read cleanly, so check Item 19 of the source FDD for the numbers.
Are there lawsuits against Dilla Enterprises?
No — Dilla Enterprises's most recently filed FDD (2025) discloses no litigation in Item 3. Franchisors must disclose material litigation involving themselves, their predecessors, parents, affiliates and management, so an empty Item 3 is a genuine signal rather than an omission.
Is Dilla Enterprises a good franchise to buy?
