You should be able to open your Business within six months after you sign a Franchise Agreement. The factors that affect this time are the ability to obtain a building or lease, financing or building permits, zoning and local ordinances, weather conditions, shortages, and installation of equipment, fixtures and signs. If you do not make reasonable efforts to open your location by the end of nine months or if we do not approve the site for your location, we may terminate the Franchise Agreement and retain all monies received.

What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Learningrx's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, a franchisee must open their Learningrx business within nine months of signing the Franchise Agreement. However, the FDD also states that it is estimated that the length of time between signing the Franchise Agreement and opening the business will usually be about one to six months.
Several factors can affect the time it takes to open a Learningrx center. These include securing financing, negotiating property lease terms, meeting construction or conversion requirements, and completing the training program. These factors are common in the franchise industry, as securing real estate and funding are often lengthy processes.
If a Learningrx franchisee does not make reasonable efforts to open their location within nine months, or if Learningrx does not approve the site for the location, Learningrx has the right to terminate the Franchise Agreement and retain all monies received. This clause underscores the importance of diligent planning and execution in the initial stages of establishing a Learningrx franchise.
