Start-Up Costs

The cost of opening your Desert Sun Tanning Salon depends on many variables. The costs of a new 2000-Square-Foot, 12 Bed Salon range as follows:

FRANCHISE FEE – $50,000

SALON BUILD-OUT
$75,000 - $185,000

Your actual cost will depend on materials, square footage, layout, fixtures, number of landlord-provided tenant improvements, and the construction manager and vendors you hire to complete the work.

TANNING BEDS
$170,000 – $208,000

This range is based on our recommendation of 2-3 super high-pressure beds, 3-4 medium-pressure beds, 4-5 conventional and one UV-Free Spray Booth. Typically this cost requires a down payment allowing the balance to be financed.

ADDITIONAL – $68,800 - $167,500

This can include such things as prepaid rent and security deposit, neon signage, POS systems, professional services, utility deposits and permits, Grand Opening marketing and advertising materials, initial training, satellite music, security systems, insurance, lotion orders, supplies, furnishings, washers and dryers, working capital, etc…
