What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Bft's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Bft does not directly offer franchises for fitness studios providing boxing classes under the RUMBLE® trademark. Instead, RF SPV, an affiliate of Bft, offers and sells these franchises. This distinction is important for prospective franchisees as it clarifies the specific entity they would be franchising with, even though it falls under the broader Bft umbrella.
The FDD highlights that Bft's affiliates manage various fitness brands, each with its own trademark and specific exercise focus. This corporate structure allows Bft to diversify its offerings while maintaining distinct brand identities. For a potential franchisee, this means that while Bft oversees the overall franchise system, the direct relationship and contractual obligations would be with RF SPV for a RUMBLE® franchise.
This arrangement has implications for support, training, and brand standards, which may be managed separately by each affiliate. It also means that the financial performance and obligations would be tied to the specific brand (RUMBLE®) rather than Bft as a whole. Prospective franchisees should carefully evaluate the FDD and related documents from RF SPV to fully understand the terms and conditions of the RUMBLE® franchise opportunity.
It is also important to note that the FDD states there is no mechanism for resolving conflicts that may arise between franchised or company-owned studios that operate under any of the Xponential Brands. Any resolution of conflicts regarding location, customers, support, or services will be entirely within your and Bft's business judgment. While Bft does not anticipate conflicts between franchisees of different brands, they will analyze any future conflict and take action (if any) that they deem appropriate.
