What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Camp Margaritaville's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the estimated cost for the Medallia Set-Up is $2,500. This fee is due before the Camp Margaritaville location opens for business. The method of payment is to be agreed upon between the franchisee and franchisor, but payment is to be made to Camp Margaritaville.
The Medallia Set-Up fee is part of the broader initial investment required to start a Camp Margaritaville franchise. It is important for prospective franchisees to factor this cost into their overall budget, alongside other expenses such as the application fee, property improvement plan fee, technology improvement plan fee, and various professional service fees. These initial costs can range significantly, depending on factors such as the location and size of the resort.
Camp Margaritaville requires franchisees to adhere to specific technology standards, and the Medallia Set-Up is part of ensuring compliance with these standards. While the FDD mentions that the Medallia set-up fee is described in Item 5, the details of what this setup entails are not specified in this excerpt. It would be prudent for potential franchisees to seek clarification from Camp Margaritaville regarding the specifics of the Medallia system and its role in the overall operation of the resort.
