What Sir Speedy franchisees actually report earning
Total Median Gross Sales Volume
$759,368
Sir Speedy's 2025 FDD, Item 19, for the fiscal year 2024. Basis: 129 Sir Speedy Centers operating under effective Franchise Agreements that were open for 12 months or longer as of December 31, 2024 and reported their financial results.
Sample size: 120 outlets. The FDD also reports total annual gross sales volume (average) of $1,279,716. We lead with the median because an average is pulled upward by the strongest outlets; the median is the middle outlet.
What the franchisor excluded from this figure
- During 2024, there were four (4) non-renewal outlets that were not included in the calculations above. All of the four outlets were open for more than twelve (12) months.
This is a disclosure of what some existing outlets reported, not a projection of what a new Sir Speedy outlet would earn. Your results will differ.
