    Los Campeones quick facts

    Is Los Campeones a franchise?
    Yes. Los Campeones offers franchises through a Franchise Disclosure Document. At the end of 2025, it reported 6 franchised and 9 company-owned outlets (2026 FDD, Item 20, PDF p. 42).
    How much does it cost to open a Los Campeones franchise?
    The Los Campeones Franchise Disclosure Document reports separate estimated initial investments by format: $296,500–$2,550,500 for total — low (2026 FDD, Item 7, PDF p. 12); $2,550,500 for total — high (2026 FDD, Item 7, PDF p. 12). These formats are not combined. Each is the franchisor's disclosed estimate, not a quote. Details
    What ongoing fees does Los Campeones charge?
    The disclosed ongoing royalty is 6% (2026 FDD, Item 6, PDF p. 9). Other recurring fees are listed in Item 6. Details
    Does Los Campeones disclose financial performance (Item 19)?
    Yes. The Los Campeones FDD includes an Item 19 financial performance representation (2026 FDD, Item 19, PDF p. 33). Figures apply only to the locations and period each one covers. Details
    How many Los Campeones locations are there?
    The FDD reports 15 outlets at the end of 2025 (2026 FDD, Item 20, PDF p. 42). Existing locations do not indicate territory availability. Details
    Is Los Campeones a good franchise to buy?
    Franopolis does not rate or recommend franchises. From the reviewed FDD: Item 19 includes financial performance figures; check which locations and period they cover; Item 20 lists outlet openings, closures and transfers; Item 6 lists every recurring fee beyond royalty; Item 20 also lists current and former franchisees you can contact. Review the full FDD with a franchise attorney and accountant before deciding.

    Outlet Changes — Item 20

    How has the outlet count changed?

    United States, as labeled in the FDD · counts as of 2023–2025 of each year.

    2026 FDD · Item 20 · PDF p. 42

    Net +1 outlets, 2022–2025

    0142022332023422024152025+19+9−27

    Year-end counts reported in Item 20. The scale starts at zero, so the line looks nearly flat; the labels between the dots show each year's change. Openings and closures for 2025 haven't been pulled from the Item 20 tables yet, so no turnover or churn is shown.

    Questions to investigate

    Prompts based on what this brand's reviewed disclosures do and don't show — not conclusions. Join free as a member to save questions to your research.

    For the franchisor

    • Which line items in the 2026 Item 7 estimate ($296,500 – $2,550,500) vary most by market, and why?

    • Which initial fee option would apply to my situation, and what conditions or discounts affect it?

    • Which locations are included in the Item 19 figures, and which were excluded?

    • Reported units went from 14 to 15 in 2025. How many new units opened, closed or changed hands?

    • Is a territory available in my area, and how is it defined in my agreement?

    For current and former owners

    • How did your actual startup costs and timeline compare with the Item 7 estimate?

    • How many hours a week do you work in the business, and in what role?

    • How do your results compare with the Item 19 figures, and what explains the difference?

    • What support from the franchisor has been most and least useful?

    For your advisors

    • Ask a franchise attorney to review the territory, renewal, transfer and termination terms.

    • Ask an accountant to build a cash-flow plan using your own assumptions, not the franchisor's.
