What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to Crawlspace Medic's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, vehicle wrapping is mandatory. Item 7 details the estimated initial investment for a new franchise, and includes costs associated with signage, including vehicle wrapping. The estimated initial investment for signage, including vehicle wrapping, ranges from $600 to $3,000.
The FDD states that the vehicle must be wrapped to Crawlspace Medic's specifications. The cost to install custom vehicle wrapping on your business vehicle is included in the signage costs. The broader 'Equipment' costs, which include the vehicle itself, range from $10,000 to $53,000. The lower end of this range assumes the franchisee already owns a vehicle that meets Crawlspace Medic's specifications.
Therefore, a prospective Crawlspace Medic franchisee should budget for the cost of vehicle wrapping as part of their initial investment. The actual cost will depend on the size and type of vehicle, as well as the specific requirements of the vehicle wrap design. It is important to note that the vehicle must meet Crawlspace Medic's minimum specifications, as outlined in the Operations Manual.
