How much does an international MetroFlex license cost?

The international master license is $250,000 USD. This grants exclusive rights to the MetroFlex brand within your country, including the ability to sub-license additional MetroFlex locations within your national territory.

Can I open multiple MetroFlex locations in my country?

Yes. The international master license includes sub-licensing rights. As the country master licensee, you can open your own MetroFlex locations and grant sub-licenses to other operators within your national territory.

Is MetroFlex a franchise?

No. MetroFlex licenses its trademark and does not sell franchises. The difference is control: a franchisor directs how you operate, including vendors, layout and hours. A MetroFlex licensee sets prices, hours, programming and facility design independently. The international master license is $250,000 one time with no ongoing royalty, and includes sub-licensing rights in your country. The US single-location license is $60,000 with a 5% royalty on gross.

What countries already have MetroFlex?

MetroFlex currently operates across the US and Japan — US locations across Texas, California, Arizona, Florida, Oklahoma, Wisconsin, and Minnesota, and Japan locations in Soka City and Chiba. All other countries are available for international master licensing.
