What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to Fly Fitness's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, Fly Fitness will provide site selection criteria that it deems advisable to franchisees. Fly Fitness will also approve the site in accordance with Section 8.1.2 of the franchise agreement.
This means that while Fly Fitness offers guidance on selecting a location, the final decision rests with them. A prospective franchisee should carefully review Section 8.1.2 of the franchise agreement to understand the specific criteria Fly Fitness uses for site approval. This could include factors like demographics, traffic patterns, competition, and lease terms.
Understanding these criteria is crucial because the success of a Fly Fitness franchise heavily depends on its location. If a franchisee chooses a site that doesn't meet Fly Fitness's standards, it could lead to disapproval and the need to find an alternative location, potentially delaying the opening and increasing costs. Therefore, franchisees should work closely with Fly Fitness during the site selection process to ensure the chosen location aligns with their requirements and maximizes the chances of success.
