What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to Punch King Fitness's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, Punch King Fitness does not deliver or install equipment for your site. However, delivery is provided, but not installation. Punch King, LLC, the parent company, is the sole exclusive supplier of Punch King Punching bags, training equipment, protective gear, flooring, and hanging rack systems to Punch King Fitness franchisees. Punch King Fitness itself is not currently an approved supplier to its franchisees.
This means that while you will need to source your equipment from Punch King, LLC, you will be responsible for the installation of that equipment at your Punch King Fitness location. This could involve hiring contractors or managing the installation process yourself. It's important to factor in the costs associated with equipment installation when planning your initial investment.
Prospective franchisees should clarify with Punch King Fitness what the typical costs are for installation, what types of contractors are usually involved, and whether Punch King Fitness provides any guidance or support during the installation process. Understanding these details will help you budget accurately and prepare for the logistical aspects of setting up your Punch King Fitness franchise.
