Is there a specific form of application for consent to transfer that Aira Fitness requires?

According to Aira Fitness's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, a specific form is required when applying for consent to transfer a franchise. The document states that the application for consent to transfer and the tender of the right of first refusal must be made through the submission of Aira Fitness's specific form of application. This form must be accompanied by all required documents and information, including a copy of the proposed purchase or transfer agreement.

This requirement means that prospective Aira Fitness franchisees need to be aware of the formal process involved in transferring their franchise. They must use the franchisor's designated form and provide all necessary documentation to ensure their application is complete and considered. Failing to use the correct form or omitting required information could delay or even void the transfer process.

It is also important to note that any agreement used in connection with a transfer is subject to Aira Fitness's prior written approval, which, according to the FDD, will not be unreasonably withheld. This implies that while franchisees have the right to transfer their business, Aira Fitness retains control over the process and the terms of the transfer to protect the integrity of the franchise system. Franchisees should familiarize themselves with all requirements and conditions outlined in Section 12 of the franchise agreement to ensure compliance and a smooth transfer process.
