Snapshot of October 19, 2026. Aggregates only: no list of locations or operators is published.

- Franchisee
- An operator running franchised locations, counted once however many it runs.
- Company-operated

- Franchisee group
- Several operators under common ownership. Groups are identified for 15% of franchised locations in this snapshot, so the count is a minimum.
