Understand where franchise growth is happening
Compare expansion activity across brands, industries and geographies. See which concepts are accelerating, where committed openings are concentrated, and how current expansion compares with previous filings.
Use FranchiseTracker for market research, territory analysis, competitive intelligence and franchise-industry monitoring.
How you find out first
Three steps between a franchise brand's paperwork and a clear view of your territory.
- 01
Brands file their expansion plans
Every franchise brand files a public document laying out how many new locations owners have committed to open over the next 12 months, and in which states.
- 02
We track every filing in real time
New and updated filings land constantly across 2,000+ brands. We read all of them the day they appear, so nothing sits in a stack waiting to be noticed.
- 03
You get the plan and the operators
The next 12 months of planned locations in your counties, plus the franchisee entity behind each one, as named in the filing.
We can't tell you the day a location opens. What we can tell you is that an owner is committed to building one, and the date that commitment was filed.
Free to explore. Pro for deeper expansion intelligence.
A free account tracks brands and expansion signals nationwide, a month behind Pro. Pro adds new filings a month before free accounts, state-level filtering, up to 10 franchisee rosters a month, and a weekly digest of new filings.
