Business Description
Rare opportunity to acquire an established, fully built-out children's swim school operating under the leading national learn-to-swim franchise brand, in a dense, affluent suburban trade area of a major Texas metro.
Opened in 2016 as one of the brand's earliest locations in the state, the school operates from an approximately 7,000 sq ft purpose-built indoor natatorium in a grocery-anchored neighborhood center. Building a comparable unit today costs roughly $1.6M to $3.7M per the franchisor's disclosure document, plus 12 to 18 months of permitting, construction and ramp. This facility is open, licensed and operating today.
Highlights:
- 653 children enrolled across 774 weekly class bookings
- 4.9 stars across 500+ Google reviews, among the strongest reputations in the market
- Recurring membership model: monthly tuition plus prepaid lesson packages
- Trained team of 18; the full-time operating partner is willing to support the transition
- Debt free, with no bank debt on the balance sheet
- Long-term lease in place, subject to landlord consent to assignment
- Recent franchisor-required capital upgrades already completed (dehumidification and flooring)
Revenue has declined from its peak, and the business is priced on asset and replacement value rather than current earnings. The opportunity is significant capacity in a fixed-cost facility. A hands-on owner-operator who invests in local and digital marketing and staffs to enrollment has a clear path to returning toward prior performance levels.
Ideal for existing franchisees of the brand, multi-unit youth enrichment operators, or an owner-operator seeking an established facility without the cost and risk of a ground-up build. Buyer subject to franchisor approval.
Financial details, the Confidential Information Memorandum and lease terms are available to qualified buyers after an NDA is signed.
