Does Itan deliver or install any items that the franchisee purchases, other than those in the Startup Package?

According to Itan's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Itan will cause its affiliate to sell and deliver the items included in the Startup Package to the franchisee. However, neither Itan nor its affiliate will deliver or install any other items that the franchisee purchases. This means that beyond the initial Startup Package, franchisees are responsible for the delivery and installation of all other necessary items for their Itan salon.

This arrangement places the onus on the franchisee to manage logistics and installation for the majority of their salon's equipment and supplies. Franchisees will need to coordinate with various suppliers, schedule deliveries, and potentially hire contractors for installation. This can add complexity and cost to the setup process, as franchisees must factor in these additional responsibilities and expenses.

Prospective Itan franchisees should carefully consider the implications of this policy. They should inquire about the typical costs associated with delivery and installation of equipment beyond the Startup Package. Understanding these costs upfront will help in accurately budgeting for the initial investment and ongoing operational needs of the franchise.
