About Red Mango
Red Mango operates in the restaurant and food service space and franchises its brand to independent owners. The quick-service and casual dining category remains one of the more active corners of franchising, and Red Mango competes within it with a defined operating model.
Opening a Red Mango franchise calls for an estimated total investment of $333,500–$581,000. That figure includes an initial franchise fee of $30,000, along with costs such as equipment, buildout, signage, initial inventory, and working capital.
Red Mango includes a financial performance representation (Item 19) in its current FDD, meaning the franchisor discloses figures on unit-level sales or earnings. Reviewing Item 19 alongside validation calls with existing franchisees is the best way to gauge realistic performance.
You can access Red Mango's current FDD through Franchat and weigh it against similar food service brands in the directory.
Financial Performance (Item 19)
Based on 25 of 26 U.S./Puerto Rico Red Mango stores reporting sales for the 12 accounting periods ending 12/28/2025, the top 25% of stores (6 units) averaged $860,441 in unit volume (median $803,139, range $717,060–$1,228,414), while the bottom 25% (7 units, mostly small c-store locations with 1-2 machines) averaged $121,637 (median $99,349, range $33,998–$210,154). Figures reflect gross sales only, are unaudited, and exclude costs/expenses, so no profitability conclusions can be drawn.
