KEY STATS and NUMBERS (from 2023 FDD Item 19):
We offer 3 franchise location formats, with Multi-pack and Single Location Options:
3-Pack Option: 1 Brand Center + 2 Brand Studios (Total Investment is about $500k for all three locations built out)
-allows an owner to have a larger territory and cost average down as they expand, as studios cost less, have less labor and no equipment so marketing and sales can be spread over 3 locations instead of one.
Single Unit Options:
Growth Format -1000 sq. ft. locations with reduced manufacturing capacity.
Brand Center Format- 1500-2500 sq. ft. locations with complete manufacturing capability.
Brand Studios -500 sq. ft. centers with no manufacturing capability. (Studio Format locations are only available to Multiple unit owners, as they are required to have a manufacturing HUB aka Brand Center)
Real Estate Options:
Brand Centers require either Prestige Industrial or B grade retail.
Growth Centers and Studios: B grade retail, strata, or select main floor office tower.
FINANCING: Our model is financing friendly, it is asset backed business making it easy to finance.
Being a B2B model, makes it very relationship driven, so owners need to be comfortable outside the store networking and building relationships. It is highly recommended owners hire and build out a sales team to scale faster.
