Launch Family Entertainment

Item 7 in the 2025 FDD lays out the initial investment range of $3,517,213 to $6,501,900, covering build-out for trampolines, laser tag, go-karts, VR, bowling, arcades, and more in these 30,000+ sq ft facilities. The $75,000 franchise fee kicks it off, followed by 6% royalties, 2% brand fund, plus ongoing $599/month POS and $100-$400/month tech fees—totaling around 8% plus fixed costs that eat into margins. Average gross revenue hits $2,318,776 across locations per Item 19, with estimated operator profits ranging $72,924 to $738,913, showing top performers clearing serious cash after expenses.

System growth signals strength: 24 franchised plus 2 corporate spots in 2024, projecting 29 total in 2025 (+21%), with 5 new units planned and just 2 transfers. SBA data shines with 49 loans averaging $1,788,986 and a low 8.2% default rate, proving banks back this model. For high-net-worth buyers eyeing entertainment, Launch's revenue scale and expansion beat many peers, but the huge upfront capital and feast-or-famine profits demand a prime location and operational hustle to hit the high end.
