What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Stretch Zone's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the Initial Franchise Fee is due when signing the Franchise Agreement. Item 4 states that to develop two Stretch Zone Franchise Businesses, a Development Fee of $119,000 is required, representing the Initial Franchise Fee for the first franchise.
For prospective Stretch Zone franchisees, this means that a significant payment is required upfront. This fee secures the rights to operate a franchise and grants access to the initial training programs and support outlined in the FDD.
It is important to note that if a franchisee chooses to develop multiple locations through an Area Development Agreement, a Development Fee is required. This fee covers the initial franchise and secures the right to develop additional locations within a specified area. The remaining balance of the Initial Franchise Fee for subsequent locations is due when signing the individual Franchise Agreements for those locations.
