What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Learningrx's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Learningrx does reserve the right to change the pricing of student and trainer kits and workbooks. Currently, Learningrx is the only approved supplier of these products, which franchisees must purchase for each student and trainer.
The FDD specifies that as of the date of the disclosure document, Learningrx prices these kits and workbooks at a cost less than what a franchisee could produce them for independently. However, Learningrx retains the right to modify these prices at any time, provided they give advanced notice to the franchisee. Franchisees are not permitted to source these products from any other supplier.
This policy has a couple of implications for prospective Learningrx franchisees. First, franchisees are dependent on Learningrx as the sole source for these essential materials. Second, while the current pricing is favorable, Learningrx has the power to increase prices, affecting the franchisee's cost of goods and potentially impacting profitability. It would be prudent for a prospective franchisee to inquire about the typical frequency and magnitude of price adjustments for these materials to better forecast expenses.
