How could utilizing an executive suite affect rental costs for an Anago franchise?

According to Anago's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, rental costs for office space can be influenced by the type of space a franchisee chooses. Anago recommends that franchisees lease office space in a commercial building, ideally between 1,000 to 1,500 square feet, centrally located within their designated area. However, the FDD notes that rental costs can vary significantly depending on the market.

One way to potentially lower rental costs is by utilizing an executive suite instead of leasing a traditional office space. The document specifically states that rental costs could be lower if an executive suite is utilized. This suggests that Anago franchisees have the option to explore more cost-effective alternatives to standard commercial leases.

Item 7 in the FDD provides an estimated range of $10,000 to $20,000 for lease and utility deposits and rent. This estimate assumes the first six months of rent. The potential reduction in rental costs through the use of an executive suite could allow a new Anago franchisee to allocate those funds to other areas of the business, such as marketing, equipment, or additional working capital.
