What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Itan's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees must purchase a startup package for $250 that includes branded supplies. These supplies consist of items such as name tags, bed tents, iTAN tote bags, and key tags. This package is sourced through Itan's affiliates.
The startup package is required to be purchased approximately 14 days before the anticipated opening date of the Itan salon. The FDD specifies that the purchase price for the startup package is nonrefundable and uniformly imposed, meaning all franchisees pay the same price.
Itan retains the right to modify the sourcing of the items within the startup package, potentially requiring franchisees to purchase directly from third-party suppliers. This could impact the cost or availability of these supplies, although the initial fee for the startup package itself is fixed. Prospective franchisees should confirm with Itan whether the contents of the startup package or its sourcing are subject to change.
