We began offering franchises in February 2011 under the KITCHEN SOLVERS® name, although our predecessors have offered franchises under the KITCHEN SOLVERS® name since 1987. We do not offer, and have not offered franchises in any other line of business. We have never operated a business similar to the business being franchised under this Disclosure Document. We grant franchises to qualified persons for the right to own and operate a retail KITCHEN SOLVERS® Business (the “Business”) within a particular geographic territory (the Territory”) and under the terms of our standard franchise agreement (the “Franchise Agreement”), a copy of which is included in this disclosure document as Exhibit B. We also are in the business of the administration of our franchise system. As of December 31, 2018, there were 44 KITCHEN SOLVERS® franchised businesses in the United States, 1 KITCHEN SOLVERS® franchise in Canada and no company owned KITCHEN SOLVERS® businesses. During the operation of your Business, you will use our Marks (as defined in Item 13), as well as our distinctive products and services, supplies, sales and business techniques, measuring and installation methods and procedures. Your Business will feature kitchen and bathroom update, beautification and remodeling options such as kitchen and bathroom design and decorating consulting; refacing, installing and replacing of kitchen and bathroom cabinets and appliances; accessorizing cabinet interiors and exteriors; installing and replacing countertops; and other kitchen and bathroom remodeling services for residential and commercial buildings. Each KITCHEN SOLVERS® business is an independently owned and operated business and you, as the franchisee, are solely responsible for your day-to-day conduct and activities. Accordingly, no KITCHEN SOLVERS® business is our agent (actual or implied).

Upfront Franchise Fees
Minimum: $65,900 Maximum: $65,900
Upfront franchise fees are the one-time payments required to secure rights to operate under an established brand, typically ranging from $20,000 to $100,000+ depending on brand value.
These fees grant access to proprietary business systems, training programs, intellectual property rights, and often territorial exclusivity—essentially purchasing the blueprint for a proven business model.
While separate from ongoing royalties, investors should evaluate these fees against expected returns, comparing fee-to-earnings ratios across opportunities and assessing how effectively franchisors reinvest these funds into system improvements.
Total Investment Costs
Minimum: $101,857 Maximum: $136,807
Ongoing Fees
Ongoing franchise fees, typically structured as royalties ranging from 4-8% of gross sales, represent the continuous payments franchisees make to maintain brand affiliation and support services.
These recurring fees fund the franchisor's operational assistance, marketing initiatives, technology updates, and continued brand development—creating a partnership where the franchisor's revenue grows alongside the franchisee's success. In addition to royalties, franchisees often contribute to national advertising funds (usually 1-3% of sales) and may incur technology fees, supply chain markups, or renewal fees depending on the franchise agreement.
Investors should carefully analyze these ongoing costs within their financial projections, as they directly impact profit margins and cash flow throughout the entire franchise relationship.
