How much does a NPM Franchising, LLC (Groombar Mobile Grooming) franchise make?

NPM Franchising, LLC (Groombar Mobile Grooming) 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 pet services brand that discloses earnings in the Pet services franchises with disclosed Item 19 earnings ranking.

NPM Franchising, LLC (Groombar Mobile Grooming) 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 NPM Franchising, LLC (Groombar Mobile Grooming)'s 1.5% royalty, the ad fund, rent, payroll, supplies and debt service. No FDD tells you a NPM Franchising, LLC (Groombar Mobile Grooming) franchise's profit, because profit depends on your site, your rent and how you run it — so treat any "NPM Franchising, LLC (Groombar Mobile Grooming) franchise profit" figure quoted elsewhere as someone's estimate, not a disclosure.

NPM Franchising, LLC (Groombar Mobile Grooming) lawsuits & legal history (FDD Item 3)

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 NPM Franchising, LLC (Groombar Mobile Grooming) 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. Item 3 of the source FDD describes each case.
