Figures above are as disclosed in The Grace Galleries's most recent FDD (registered 2024). Source: California Dept. of Financial Protection and Innovation — Franchise Registration · filing app-27789. The risk level, the Item 19 figures, how it compares to peers, and the litigation & churn detail are in the full report.
The Grace Galleries franchise profit — what the FDD discloses
Plainly: The Grace Galleries does not disclose franchise profit or revenue. Its most recent FDD makes no Item 19 financial performance representation, so there is no franchisor-backed earnings figure for The Grace Galleries — any number quoted elsewhere is an estimate, not a disclosure. The absence is itself worth weighing (many other franchisors do disclose), and the full report reads the risk signals The Grace Galleries's FDD does contain — fees, litigation, and outlet churn — against peers. For brands that put earnings on paper, see Other franchises with disclosed Item 19 earnings.
The Grace Galleries lawsuits & legal history (FDD Item 3)
The Grace Galleries'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.
The Grace Galleries closures & failure rate
Before you sign, The Grace Galleries 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 The Grace Galleries's most recent filing shows, and whether it's normal for a other 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. The Grace Galleries's latest tables show a stable franchised network. The actual closure and termination counts, and how The Grace Galleries's churn ranks against other peers, are in the full report.
