Steps to Spa Ownership

Spavia’s 2026 FDD, Item 19, Part III reports 2025 results for 44 reporting franchised locations: median annual revenue (cash receipts) of $1,110,481, median cash flow from operations of $199,773, and a median operating margin of 18.4%.

These are historical results, not a projection of your earnings. Cash flow from operations is not owner take-home pay. The reported measure excludes owner salary or withdrawals, debt and debt service costs such as interest, managerial expenses, depreciation and amortization, home office expenses, and business meals and travel.

Individual results vary. Review the full FDD, including the reporting criteria and notes, with Alisa.

While it can’t hurt to have experience in the spa industry, it is not required. We are looking for individuals who share our dedication to providing an exceptional experience. We can teach you and your team the rest!

Per the 2026 FDD: the initial franchise fee is $59,500 and the initial training fee is $5,000 (Item 5). The royalty fee is 6% of Gross Sales and the Brand Fund contribution is 1% of Gross Sales (Item 6).

No, you will be responsible for financing. We would be happy to introduce you to lenders and financing brokers who are familiar with our business.

Each location is different, but the most time-consuming steps tend to be site selection, lease negotiation, build-out (including permitting) requirements, and training. However, we anticipate it will take approximately 9 to 12 months from signing your lease to opening day at your Spavia.

We prefer for Spavias to be located in shopping centers that have anchor retailers, female oriented retailers, wellness oriented retailers & other national retailers. These types of retailers provide the best synergies (a more comprehensive approach will be available).

Per the 2026 FDD, Item 17, the initial term is 10 years, with the right to be considered for two consecutive additional 10-year renewal terms — up to 30 years total. Renewal is subject to standard conditions including good standing, completion of refresher training, and execution of the then-current franchise agreement.

Yes. Spavia offers multi-unit Development Agreements for qualified candidates. Per the 2026 FDD, Item 5, the Development Fee is $150,000 for the right to develop 3 Day Spas, plus $50,000 for each additional unit up to 5. Reduced per-unit fees apply for larger Development Schedules. Many of our owners have chosen to purchase 3 or more locations.

Per the 2026 FDD, Item 1, a Spavia Day Spa typically occupies approximately 2,500 to 3,300 square feet of leased or owned space, with our recommended size being closer to 3,000 square feet, typically located in a high-end retail shopping center.
