What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Aira Fitness's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees will purchase furniture and fixtures from "Suppliers".
The FDD outlines that the estimated initial investment for furniture and fixtures ranges from $0 to $1,000. This cost is paid "As arranged" to the suppliers. The "as arranged" payment method indicates that the payment schedule and terms are determined between the franchisee and the supplier.
Prospective Aira Fitness franchisees should inquire with the franchisor during their due diligence to understand which suppliers are approved, what factors influence the cost of furniture and fixtures, and what payment terms can be negotiated. Understanding these details will help in accurately budgeting for the initial investment.
