Sharing a unique situation that may appeal to searchers looking for an operator-first opportunity with a shortened ramp to revenue.
An individual searcher began developing an IV nutrition franchise location but is stepping back for personal reasons prior to signing the lease and beginning construction.
The heavy lifting typically associated with franchise launches has already been completed:
Franchise rights secured
Territory and demographic analysis performed (Phoenix, AZ)
Site identified after market evaluation
Lease negotiated and legally reviewed (execution pending)
Initial architectural plans completed
As a result, a new owner could move directly into lease execution and build-out, with a credible path to opening in roughly 90 days.
Compared to sourcing and launching a franchise from scratch, this represents a meaningful reduction in:
Site selection risk
timeline uncertainty
early-stage execution friction
We believe this could be attractive to:
Self-funded searchers wanting a faster path to operating
Healthcare/wellness-focused operators
Buyers comfortable with a structured franchise model but seeking to avoid the long pre-launch phase.
We’re happy to coordinate introductions, share documentation, and provide additional context for interested searchers.
