What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Pump It Up's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, if a franchisee's relocation request is approved, they must reimburse Pump It Up for the actual costs incurred during the consideration of the relocation request. The FDD states that these relocation costs amount to $4,000, payable upon demand. This fee covers Pump It Up's expenses in evaluating the proposed new location and ensuring it meets the brand's standards.
This means that a Pump It Up franchisee needs to be prepared to pay this fee if they wish to move their existing franchise to a new location and must pay whether or not the relocation is ultimately approved. It is important to note that this fee is separate from any other costs associated with the physical move itself, such as construction, permits, or new equipment.
Franchisees should carefully consider the potential benefits of relocation against this upfront cost, as well as the risk of incurring the fee even if the relocation is not approved. It is advisable to discuss relocation plans thoroughly with Pump It Up beforehand to understand the criteria for approval and to get an estimate of the potential costs involved.
