What the Experimax FDD Reveals

Experimax, a Experimax Holdings franchise, has been franchising since 2015 - 1 years after the concept was founded in 2014 , currently with 200 total locations in the tech-it sector, headquartered in FL. The 2024 FDD lists a total initial investment between $200K and $385K - a 93% spread between the low and high end that reflects how site size, market, and buildout scope change the capital requirement. That total bundles the franchise fee of $40K together with equipment, leasehold buildout, and the working capital needed to get through ramp-up.

Ongoing royalties run 5.0% of gross sales; add the 1.0% advertising-fund contribution and the combined ongoing draw reaches 6.0% of gross sales. Notably, Experimax does not disclose financial performance (Item 19) in its FDD. That is common (Item 19 is optional under the FTC Franchise Rule) but it puts the burden on prospective buyers to survey existing franchisees (Item 20 contact list), model unit economics from public comparables, and demand validated profit-and-loss data before signing.

The unit count trend here is positive -- Experimax posted 5.0% net growth year-over-year (20 openings, 10 closures). Sustained positive growth is a signal that the unit-economics are working well enough to attract new operators, though late-stage growth can also reflect aggressive sales push rather than operational health.
