January Avg

This is a figure per transaction in January 2024, not what one outlet takes in a year. Woops!'s 2025 FDD, Item 19, for the January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2024. Basis: The 20 franchised establishments with a January 2024 figure in Table 1-A: 17 Mobile Businesses, 2 Bake Shops and 1 Boutique.
