TKK FRIED CHICKEN

Item 7 pegs initial investment at $375,000-$698,000, covering buildout, equipment, and inventory for a 1,000-2,000 sq ft unit—higher end for prime spots, lower for non-trad like malls or airports. Franchise fee hits $37,500 upfront, then 5% royalty on gross sales plus 2% brand fund and $140-$350 monthly tech fee. No Item 19 earnings disclosure means no average sales or profit benchmarks, forcing buyers to dig into FDD contacts or model conservative 10-15% margins after QSR norms, potentially netting $40K-$100K owner income at $800K-$1.2M AUVs seen in similar crispy chicken concepts.

System maturity shows promise: 27 franchise and 2 corporate units as of 2024, up 12% from 25 in 2023, with 19 new units projected amid multi-unit deals. Franchising since 2018 from NYC HQ, it's a young brand targeting year-round demand but faces fierce QSR rivalry—no termination data spikes noted, signaling stability. For risk-tolerant investors eyeing $400K+ cash, this scalable model with supplied recipes could multiply via development rights, but lack of financials amps due diligence on local traffic and supply chains.
