The Scoop N Scootery Franchising

The vendor opportunity at The Scoop N Scootery

The Scoop N Scootery Franchising operates a tiny, concentrated footprint of 3 total units, all company-owned as reported in the 2025 FDD. The number of franchised units is not disclosed, which means the current software addressable market is effectively capped at those 3 corporate locations. For a vendor, this is not a volume play; it is a relationship-driven, single-buyer sale. The royalty rate is 5.0% on gross sales, and the initial franchise term runs 10 years. Average unit volume (AUV) is not disclosed in the most recent FDD, so you cannot model a revenue-based ROI without direct discovery.

Who controls software purchasing

All purchasing authority flows through a single individual listed in Item 1 of the 2025 FDD: Austin Crittenden, Member. In a system this small, there is no separate IT department or procurement committee. Crittenden is the de facto CIO, CFO, and operations lead for technology decisions. Any software pitch must be concise, demonstrate immediate operational value, and respect the bandwidth constraints of a founder-level operator. There are no other named executives or operators in our corpus, and no parent company exerts influence—the brand appears independently owned.

Mandated and current tech stack

The 2025 FDD mandates three specific technology categories. First, the point-of-sale system is Toast POS by Toast, Inc., a cloud-based platform common in quick-service restaurants. Second, accounting must run on QuickBooks by Intuit Inc., which suggests financial data lives in that ecosystem and any integration must be compatible. Third, franchisees must use an approved digital marketing services provider, though the specific vendor is not named in the available extracts. These mandates are non-negotiable for any franchisee that may join the system, and they define the core stack that any add-on software must complement or integrate with.

Procurement, renewals, and timing

The FDD’s Item 8, which typically details procurement rules—whether suppliers must be designated, approved, or are open—provided no extract in our corpus. This leaves a gap in understanding whether a vendor can sell directly or must pass through a corporate approval gate. On renewals, Item 17 signals that franchisees must sign the then-current form of franchise agreement, which may contain materially different terms. They must also be in compliance with all obligations, renovate to current standards, and sign a general release. With a 10-year initial term and no disclosed renewal term length, software contract windows are not tied to a predictable franchise lifecycle. Vendors should approach this as an opportunistic, corporate-level sale timed to the HQ’s own operational refresh cycles.

How to read the The Scoop N Scootery FDD

The full 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document is embedded below. It was filed with state franchise regulators and contains the complete Item 11 technology obligations, Item 19 financial performance representations (if any), and the detailed list of mandated suppliers. Reading the source document is essential because the available extracts leave gaps—particularly around procurement rules and unit-level economics. For vendors, the FDD is the single best source of truth on what this franchisor requires and how it governs its tiny but growing system.
