At iFlex Stretch Studios, we employ a master broker dedicated to facilitating the discovery of your retail location. This expert ensures that your chosen site aligns perfectly with your iFlex Stretch Studios' target market. Additionally, the master broker provides valuable assistance in negotiating lease terms and addressing any inquiries you might have. Their exclusive focus is on you as the tenant, eliminating any potential conflict of interest with developers. As a new franchisee, this marks your initial stride in securing a location for your iFlex Stretch Studios franchise. We leverage comprehensive mapping and demographic analysis to guide your site search and offer counsel throughout the finalization of lease agreements. The ideal location spans between 1000 to 1500 square feet, ideally situated within retail centers featuring excellent visibility in high-traffic areas.

After finalizing your lease, the crucial step involves engaging an architect to draft comprehensive plans for your iFlex Stretch Studios space. A dedicated corporate team member will collaborate with you to outline the initial layout for your architect. Additionally, you will receive an exhaustive construction specification book detailing all construction aspects, encompassing paint, flooring, furniture, and fixtures. This comprehensive documentation equips your architect with all the necessary details to create and submit plans, which will undergo thorough review and approval by our corporate team. At iFlex Stretch Studios, we prioritize uniformity across all our studios, ensuring a consistent experience. Therefore, our design specifications are standardized and included for your studio. Throughout this process, our support remains steadfast. We provide online checklists via our corporate intranet system, FlexNet, guiding you through every stage and ensuring every crucial detail is noticed during the studio build-out.
