Next Steps

Leading to the Acquisition of your Franchise

If, after reviewing this information, you wish to know more about our concept, we suggest that you fill in the Franchise Application found below.

Once we receive your application and we evaluate the information you've provided, we will contact you so that we can establish a time and a date for a meeting at our offices.

This first exploratory meeting will allow us to answer your questions by giving you more information concerning our organization and our franchising system. We will also explore locations and available stores, together with their cost and profitability. If we mutually decide to continue our discussions, certain pro forma statements or the required disclosure documents about our company will be handed to you at the meeting.

The next steps will require a deposit of $5,000, in order to secure your selected store location . This deposit is fully refundable if either party does not wish to continue with the process, otherwise it shall be applied to the franchisee fee, charged upon the execution of the franchise agreement.

The final step in the process is the execution of the legal documents and the payment of the balance due on closing. Your initial training program as a franchisee will then begin immediately in one of our corporate stores.
