Business description
SEASONAL RETAIL FRANCHISE PLATFORM FOR ACQUISITION 33 Franchise Territories • Proven System • Built to Scale Nationwide THE OPPORTUNITY Acquire a fully built, revenue-generating franchise platform in the high-margin seasonal retail space — engineered for scale, simplicity, and national expansion. This is not a startup. This is not a concept. This is a proven franchisor system with decades of market validation , now ready for its next phase of aggressive growth. THE MODEL (WHY IT WINS) This brand pioneered a mobile, pop-up retail model designed to eliminate the biggest risks in retail: No long-term leases No heavy fixed overhead No year-round staffing burden Instead, it captures high-intent consumer demand during peak seasonal buying windows , producing strong margins and efficient operations . Simple model. High demand. Repeatable execution. WHAT YOU’RE ACTUALLY BUYING A complete franchise platform , already built and operational: Fully developed franchise system & legal infrastructure Established brand with decades of recognition Turnkey franchise recruitment engine Proven training & operational playbooks Scalable vendor & supply chain relationships Existing franchisee network generating revenue This is a platform acquisition , not a location purchase. WHY THIS IS VALUABLE Most buyers spend years trying to build what already exists here. You are stepping into: A validated business model A monetizable franchise system A scalable growth engine A brand with built-in customer demand This dramatically reduces execution risk and accelerates time to scale . FRANCHISE ECONOMICS (THE ENGINE) This system attracts franchisees because it delivers: Low startup investment High-margin product category Seasonal flexibility (lean operations) Strong repeat customer behavior Simple, easy-to-operate model Translation: Easier to sell franchises. Easier to scale units. Faster system growth. CURRENT FOOTPRINT 33 active franchise territories Multi-state presence across the U.S. Established franchise base with operating history Positioned for national expansion This is a live system , not a theoretical rollout. $200+ Net Cash Flow with Great upside to sell franchises and grow footprints and profits THE SCALE PLAY (WHERE THE UPSIDE IS) The infrastructure is already built. Growth is the lever. A new owner can unlock significant upside through: Expanding franchise sales into untapped U.S. markets Increasing system-wide purchasing power (margin expansion) Launching additional product lines Layering in complementary seasonal concepts Securing national retail and property partnerships Penetrating high-density, underserved territories This is a classic “platform ready to scale” opportunity. *Investment Range: $62,100 - $89,600 for Franchisees Please see Item 7 within the FDD for details on the estimated Investment Range Franchise Fee: $49,500 This goes to you or if you use a Franchise Consultant broker/Marketing Rep to see for you often the range of commission is $25,000 for 1st territory sold and $10,000 per additional territory. Royalty: 6% Franchisees selling point Passive Ownership: Semi- passive after 1 year Passive Ownership means the owner is working 15 hours or less per week in the business. INVESTMENT HIGHLIGHTS Decades of operating history Proven franchise model with existing territories Recognized brand with loyal customer base High-margin seasonal retail category Scalable, asset-light operating model Built-out systems, training, and infrastructure Positioned for rapid national expansion WHO THIS IS FOR Ideal for: Private equity groups seeking a platform investment Strategic buyers looking to enter or expand in franchising Operators wanting a scalable, asset-light growth vehicle Franchise platform investors focused on unit economics + expansion THE BOTTOM LINE You are not building a franchise. You are acquiring one that’s already built. And stepping into the phase where scale creates exponential value.
