What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Body20's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees are required to pay a Presale Kit Payment prior to opening their studio. The Presale Kit Payment is $6,000, plus actual shipping costs. This payment covers branded items such as a pop-up tent, event banners, and other promotional materials designated by Body20 to support grassroots and community outreach events. The FDD states that Body20 will specify the items included in the presale kit.
This means that while the FDD outlines the general types of items included in the presale kit, Body20 retains the discretion to determine the specific items that will be provided. A prospective franchisee should confirm exactly what items are included in the current presale kit to assess its value and relevance to their local marketing efforts.
Furthermore, the franchisee acknowledges that the Presale Kit Payment is non-refundable, regardless of the reason. This underscores the importance of understanding the contents of the kit and its potential impact on pre-opening marketing strategies. Franchisees may also be required to purchase additional products or equipment from Body20, its affiliates, or designated vendors for an additional fee.
