Reporting periods and scope

U.S. locations

2026 FDD Item 20 Table 1 reports 311 franchised and 0 company-owned U.S. outlets (311 total) at fiscal year-end 2025.

Worldwide locations

≥350 worldwide lower bound from operated appliance-service franchises; census date unstated. The branded employment page expressly defines each of its 350+ Mr. Appliance locations as an independently owned and operated franchise. Its legal footer describes operating franchised businesses within specified geographic areas; the business is the unit, not a separate count of areas, owners, vehicles or agreements. The inclusive plus sign supports at least 350. The selected page is a Chicago South job route, but its 350+ statement describes the brand franchise network, not 350 Chicago locations. No location census date or complete geographic allocation is supplied; an employment posting date is not a census date. Other retained official statements report service-providing franchisees at more than 150 locations worldwide and 320+ North American franchise locations. These weaker bounds are compatible but undated and not reconciled into a time series. A reader directory result of 343 was not a verified complete census and is excluded. No application or contact action was performed. All selected pages are undated. September 15, 2026 is the new capture observation date, not a census or publication date. Operating service businesses may work from home or within service areas. No street premises, exact worldwide census, current individual owner identity or country/company allocation is inferred. All prior entries, eligibility history, financial metrics and typed U.S. unit fields remain unchanged.
