The vendor opportunity at Mobility Plus Stores
Mobility Plus Stores is a retail brand outside food, headquartered in Florida, and the most recent FDD on file is from 2025. That filing reports 8 total locations, all 8 franchised; the company-owned count is not disclosed in the most recent FDD, and year-over-year unit growth is not available. Average unit volume is not disclosed either, so revenue-per-unit sizing is unavailable — what we have is a 6.0% royalty and a 5-year initial term, short for franchising. Eight units is a design-partner footprint, not a volume play, and the leverage is in the standard rather than the seat count.
Who controls software purchasing
Item 1 names four people. Richard Peter is CEO and Founder and is the signer. Robert Landolfi is Director of Operations and VA Relations, Michael Peter is Director of Strategy and Compliance, and Spencer Jackson is Director of Franchise Development. No CIO, CTO, or other technology officer is disclosed in the most recent FDD, so operations and compliance are the closest thing to an evaluator, with the founder-CEO approving.
The brand sits under Mobility Plus, a single-brand holding company, and our corpus records one sibling brand under that parent: Mobility Plus Home Access. A single-brand holdco is a narrower parent story than a multi-brand group, but the sibling matters: anything adopted here plausibly travels to it. Our own operator mapping finds 1 operator, none multi-unit, across roughly 1 located unit, in Wisconsin; with all 8 disclosed units franchised, that mapping covers a small fraction of the system.
Tech named in the FDD, and what is actually required
The 2025 filing mandates exactly one system: QuickBooks Online, which the FDD obliges the franchisee to use. Bookkeeping is therefore the one occupied category, and a vendor selling into it is displacing a contractual obligation rather than a preference — a materially harder sale.
Two further systems appear without being required. QuickBooks is named in a fee or usage clause and Square is named only, as a mention. Nothing in the filing requires either, so neither should be treated as a contracted incumbent. That leaves point of sale, payments, inventory, scheduling, and customer records uncommitted on the face of this FDD. Naming a system is evidence that the drafter had it in mind, not evidence of an installed vendor relationship.
Procurement, renewals, and timing
Item 8 is where designated-supplier and approved-supplier obligations normally sit, and this filing produced no Item 8 extract, so whether Mobility Plus Stores runs a designated, approved, or open procurement model is not established by the data we hold. Item 17 is clearer. The initial term is 5 years, and a franchisee may obtain successor agreements for up to two additional 5-year terms. Renewal requires advance notice to the franchisor, compliance, execution of the then-current form of franchise agreement — which the FDD warns may contain materially different terms and conditions — payment of the successor franchise fee, and a general release unless prohibited by applicable law. The practical point for a vendor is cadence: a 5-year term with 5-year successors puts a contractual decision point in front of every operator roughly twice a decade, and the then-current agreement is where a new technology requirement would appear.
How to read the Mobility Plus Stores FDD
The 2025 document was filed with state franchise regulators, and the full PDF is embedded in the viewer below. Item 1 gives the executives named above and the chain up to Mobility Plus; Item 8 covers supplier obligations; Item 11 covers computer systems and required technology, where the QuickBooks Online obligation belongs; Item 17 covers renewal and the successor terms; Item 20 carries the unit tables behind the 8-unit count.

Questions vendors ask
Mobility Plus Stores, answered from the filing
Item 1 names Richard Peter, CEO and Founder, as the signer, with Robert Landolfi (Director of Operations and VA Relations), Michael Peter (Director of Strategy and Compliance) and Spencer Jackson (Director of Franchise Development) beneath him. No CIO or CTO is disclosed in the most recent FDD, so operations and compliance are the likely evaluators.
One system: QuickBooks Online, which the FDD obliges the franchisee to use — bookkeeping is therefore an occupied category. QuickBooks appears in a fee or usage clause and Square is named only; the filing requires neither, so point of sale and payments read as open rather than incumbent-held. No POS is mandated.
The 2025 FDD reports 8 total locations, all 8 franchised; the company-owned count is not disclosed in the most recent FDD, and year-over-year unit growth is not available. Our mapping places roughly 1 of those units at a physical address, in Wisconsin; the rest are not located in our data.
Not established. Item 8 — where designated-supplier and approved-supplier requirements live — produced no extract from this filing, so we cannot say whether the brand runs a designated, approved, or open model. The one hard procurement signal we hold is the QuickBooks Online mandate.
The initial term is only 5 years, with up to two additional 5-year successor terms. Renewal requires advance notice, compliance, signing the then-current franchise agreement — which may carry materially different terms — paying the successor fee, and a general release. Short terms mean the renewal conversation comes round often.
It was filed with state franchise regulators in 2025. The full PDF is embedded in the viewer below — read Item 1 for executives and the entity chain, Item 8 for supplier obligations, Item 11 for computer systems and required technology, Item 17 for renewal, and Item 20 for the unit tables.
