In the Aira Fitness FDD, what does 'we' or 'us' refer to?

According to the 2025 Aira Fitness Franchise Disclosure Document, the terms "we" or "us" are used to refer to Aira Fitness Franchising LLC, the franchisor. The term "you" refers to the person or entity purchasing the franchise. If the franchisee is a corporation, partnership, or other entity, "you" also includes the franchisee's owners, unless stated otherwise. Aira Fitness Franchising LLC is an Illinois limited liability company that was organized on August 14, 2019, with its principal place of business at 600 Route 59, Ingleside, IL 60041.

This definition is important for prospective franchisees as it clarifies who is making the statements and obligations within the FDD and the franchise agreement. Understanding this distinction ensures that franchisees know exactly with whom they are contracting and who is responsible for providing the support and services outlined in the FDD. The FDD specifies that Aira Fitness Franchising LLC grants qualified candidates the right to operate an Aira Fitness Business according to a Franchise Agreement and the company's standards, which are communicated through confidential operations manuals.

Furthermore, the FDD mentions Aira Fitness LLC ("AF") as a predecessor to Aira Fitness Franchising LLC. AF, also an Illinois limited liability company, has operated Aira Fitness Businesses in Illinois since February 2019. Additionally, Pure Gym Equipment LLC ("PGE") is identified as an affiliate and the only approved supplier of the Initial Fitness Equipment Package and the Pod Package. Refuel Bootcamp Franchise LLC ("RBF") is another affiliate that offers Refuel Bootcamp franchises. These relationships are crucial for franchisees to understand, as they may be required to interact with these entities for supplies, services, or other aspects of their Aira Fitness business.
