What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Brain Balance's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the cost of leasing commercial space is estimated to be between $10 and $50 per square foot. This estimate is based on the center's location and current market conditions. However, the FDD notes that costs may be higher in major metropolitan areas.
Brain Balance requires a minimum of 1,500 square feet of usable space to operate a franchise, with a maximum of 2,500 square feet. The initial investment estimates are based on a space within this range. Securing approval from Brain Balance is necessary if a franchisee intends to use a non-commercial space.
Prospective franchisees should research commercial leasing rates in their target market to refine this estimate. They should also consider the potential need for a larger space and the associated costs, especially if operating in a major metropolitan area. Understanding these factors will help in accurately projecting the initial investment required for leasing commercial space.
