What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Aira Fitness's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, a franchisee must meet a minimum monthly gross sales requirement beginning on the one-year anniversary of opening their business. This requirement is set at $10,000 per month. If an Aira Fitness franchise fails to meet this sales target for two consecutive months during its second year of operation, the franchisor may require the Principal and General Managers to attend additional training programs or provide on-site assistance and consultation, with the franchisee bearing all associated costs.
If the Aira Fitness franchise fails to meet the minimum monthly gross sales requirement for six consecutive months during its second year or thereafter, Aira Fitness has the right to eliminate the franchisee's territorial protection or even terminate the Franchise Agreement. This underscores the importance of achieving and maintaining adequate sales volumes to retain the benefits of the franchise agreement and territorial exclusivity.
It is important to note that Aira Fitness states that neither the minimum membership requirement nor the minimum monthly gross sales requirement should be interpreted as a projection of income. This means that prospective franchisees should not rely on these figures as guarantees of financial success but rather as performance benchmarks that must be met to remain in good standing with the franchisor.
