Score breakdown · what drove the 34 / 100 verdict
- 01HIGHGoing Concern status indicates the franchisor may have solvency/operational viability issues that could jeopardize support and system stability
- 02MEDOnly 3 units in the system suggests extremely limited scale, making it difficult to verify unit economics, share best practices, or sustain corporate overhead
- 03MINORUnknown growth trajectory with only 3 units raises questions about franchisee recruitment, retention, and the franchisor's ability to grow the brand
- 04MEDNo disclosed litigation is unusual for a franchise and may indicate either a very new system or incomplete FDD transparency
- 05MED7% royalty on $2.95M average revenue ($206k annually per unit) leaves limited margin for franchisee profitability relative to $373k reported net income

Frequently asked questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to open a Bodenvy franchise?
The total investment to open a Bodenvy franchise ranges from $609K – $1.0M, with an initial franchise fee of $65K. This includes real estate, equipment, inventory, and working capital as disclosed in their Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD).
What do Bodenvy franchise owners earn?
Bodenvy does not disclose average franchise owner earnings in their FDD Item 19. Not all franchisors are required to make financial performance representations. We recommend asking existing franchisees directly about their financial experience.
What is Item 19 in the Bodenvy FDD?
The FDD section where a franchisor may disclose financial performance of its outlets. Disclosure is optional and formats vary; figures are typically gross sales, which is revenue before expenses, not profit. FranchiseVerdict extracts these figures directly from the Bodenvy FDD and qualifies whose outlets they describe.
What is Bodenvy's franchise failure rate?
SBA 7(a) loan charge-off data is not available for Bodenvy (fewer than 10 loans on file). Charge-off rates are one way to gauge franchise risk, but not all franchise loans go through the SBA program. We recommend reviewing turnover and closure data in the FDD and speaking with current franchisees.
How many Bodenvy franchise locations are there?
As of their most recent FDD filing, Bodenvy has 2 total units in the United States, including 0 franchised units and 2 company-owned units.
Is Bodenvy a good franchise to buy?
FranchiseVerdict rates Bodenvy as a D-grade franchise with a verdict score of 34 out of 100 (higher is better), based on our analysis of investment costs, revenue data, SBA loan performance, and growth trends. Our rating is based solely on publicly available FDD and government data; we recommend speaking with current franchisees before making any investment decision. This is not investment advice.
