What general criteria does Aira Fitness apply in approving a proposed supplier?

According to Aira Fitness's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the company applies three general criteria when considering a proposed supplier. These criteria are (i) the cost of the product, (ii) the quality of the product, and (iii) the supplier's ability to manufacture the product in accordance with Aira Fitness's specifications.

For a prospective Aira Fitness franchisee, this means that if they wish to use a supplier not already on the approved list, the supplier's products will be evaluated based on these three factors. The franchisee may need to submit samples and other information for testing to determine if the supplier meets Aira Fitness's standards. Aira Fitness generally provides notification of approval or disapproval within 30 days of receiving all requested information and samples. While Aira Fitness currently does not charge for the approval process, it reserves the right to do so in the future.

It's also important to note that Aira Fitness retains the right to re-inspect the facilities and products of any approved supplier and can revoke approval if the supplier fails to continue meeting the company's criteria. Franchisees will receive notice of any revocation via a detailed phone call or email. This ongoing evaluation helps Aira Fitness maintain consistent quality and standards across its franchise system.
