What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Dryject's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the minimum required equipment package costs $166,500. This equipment package must be purchased directly from Dryject and includes at least three model 4820 DryJect® machines, each costing $55,500, along with certain spare parts.
For a prospective franchisee, this is a significant upfront investment. However, the FDD also notes that with acceptable credit, the model 4820 DryJect® machines can be leased from third-party leasing companies for approximately $1,000 per month per machine. This provides a potential alternative for franchisees who may not have the capital to purchase the equipment outright.
It is important to note that Dryject's officers have an ownership interest in DryJect, Inc., the affiliate that supplies the proprietary equipment and spare parts. This arrangement could create a potential conflict of interest, so franchisees should carefully consider the terms and conditions of the equipment purchase or lease agreement. Franchisees should also inquire about the specific spare parts included in the minimum equipment package and their costs.
