What is the estimated range for computer equipment costs for a Bananas Smoothies Frozen Yogurt franchise?

I am unable to provide a specific cost range for computer equipment for a Bananas Smoothies Frozen Yogurt franchise, according to the 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document. While Item 7 discusses the initial investment, including the need to purchase or lease computer hardware, software, and a Point of Sale system, it explicitly states that the costs are not included in the equipment amounts provided.

Item 7 does mention that the low-end equipment costs anticipate that the location was a food service business and contains certain equipment that could be used by your Franchised Business. This suggests that the cost of computer equipment could vary significantly depending on whether the franchisee is taking over an existing food service location or starting from scratch. Also, the franchisee must purchase or lease a computer and an electronic Point of Sale system, and Bananas Smoothies Frozen Yogurt does specify the brand or model.

To get a clearer understanding of the potential costs, a prospective Bananas Smoothies Frozen Yogurt franchisee should ask the franchisor for a detailed breakdown of the estimated costs for computer hardware and software, as well as the Point of Sale system. This should include specific brands or models that are required or recommended, as well as any ongoing software or support fees.
