Quick fee read: $65K franchise fee · 10% royalty/ad burden. These figures are directional screening data, not a substitute for reading the current FDD and speaking with existing operators.
Stretch Lab requires a total initial investment of $156K to $386K (midpoint approximately $271K), with an initial franchise fee of $65K. The ongoing fee burden is 10% (8% royalty plus 2% advertising fund). This is below the industry average of approximately 18.1%, leaving more margin for the operator.
Stretch Lab does not publicly disclose Item 19 financial performance data in their FDD. This is a significant transparency gap — franchisees must rely on validation calls and personal research rather than audited financial representations. Prospective buyers should demand current unit-level financials from existing operators during due diligence.
Stretch Lab operates approximately 146 franchised units. The SBA 7(a) loan default rate of 4.4% is in line with industry norms of approximately 3.8%.
Prospective franchisees should verify all figures against the most recent FDD, conduct validation calls with multiple existing franchisees, and consult with a franchise attorney before signing any agreement.
