Papa Murphy’s presents the stronger immediate software-sales opportunity, and it’s not close. The dimension that dominates is TAM: 965 franchised units versus 2. That’s a 482x larger addressable base of independently operated locations, each a potential deal. Even with a -3.6% unit decline, the absolute churn is only ~35 units per year—leaving over 900 active prospects to sell into right now. The terrain also heavily favors Papa Murphy’s.
