The scalable franchise model ranges in cost from approximately $300,000 for an express unit to $775,000 for a stand-alone unit.
Depending on the size of the unit, the cash requirement will vary. Up to 80 percent of equipment financing can be arranged for qualified candidates. Please note that the $30,000 franchise fee is not financeable. We are also an approved Small Business Administration (SBA) franchise.
