Barmetrix Hospitality operates 22 total units — 19 franchised and 3 company-owned — across 2 states (ND, HI). Franchised outlets grew 11.765% year over year. The FDD makes no financial performance representation under Item 19, so no average unit volume is available.
For software vendors, the addressable market is 19 franchised locations. The franchisor controls technology procurement, and the FDD names specific systems franchisees must buy. This is a small but centralized target.
Item 2 names Raymond Walsh (Chief Executive Officer and Director) and Daniel Breaux (Director). The franchisor mandates the Pilot Inventory System and a CRM supplied through the franchisor, so HQ is the decision-maker for those purchases. Franchisees have no discretion on these systems.
Item 11 requires franchisees to purchase a computer system to audit customers' inventory and report results to customers and the franchisor. The franchisor may modify computer system specifications from time to time, and franchisees must comply within 60 days of notice. High-speed internet access is also required.
Item 8 names the proprietary Pilot Inventory System, which franchisees are licensed to use, and a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) System supplied through the franchisor. Both are required purchases. The FDD also requires franchisees to buy scanners and scales from the franchisor. For other equipment and supplies, the franchisor may limit sources to itself, affiliates, or designated suppliers.
Item 8 uses an approved-supplier list model. Franchisees must buy scanners, scales, the Pilot Inventory System, and the CRM from the franchisor. For other items, franchisees may propose suppliers for approval, but the franchisor has the absolute right to limit suppliers. In fiscal 2024, required purchases from approved suppliers generated $18,300 in revenue for the franchisor, 1.4% of total revenues of $1,277,892.
Initial terms are 5 years. Renewal requires 6 months' written notice, a $4,000 fee, compliance with the franchise agreement, and bringing the business into conformity with current specifications. With 19 franchised units and recent growth, renewals and new openings create periodic software buying windows.
