What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Big Air Trampoline Park's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the franchisor retains the right to modify the standards for facility remodels. Specifically, during the third calendar year following the opening of a Big Air Trampoline Park facility, the franchisee is required to remodel or upgrade the facility at their own expense.
The remodel or upgrade must be completed in accordance with Big Air Trampoline Park's standards as outlined in the Operations Manual. The FDD explicitly states that Big Air Trampoline Park has the right to modify these standards at any time. This also applies to upgrades to the Computer System, which the franchisee must also undertake at their own cost according to the standards in the Operations Manual, which Big Air Trampoline Park can modify at their discretion.
This provision gives Big Air Trampoline Park significant control over the appearance and functionality of its franchise locations, even after they are established. For a prospective franchisee, this means they must be prepared to invest in remodels and upgrades as directed by Big Air Trampoline Park, and that the specifications for these projects could change over time. It is important for franchisees to factor in the potential costs of these future upgrades and remodels when assessing the overall financial viability of the franchise.
