Zoomin Groomin Franchise Review – Pet Grooming Business Opportunity

Zoomin Groomin is a relatively new franchise opportunity that has been franchising since 2006. The ideal franchisee is a pet groomer looking to leverage a franchise system for marketing and management support. The owner of the Zoomin Groomin franchise runs a pet salon and spa right out of his home. So obviously the owner must have sufficient housing for this type of activity and experience in this line of work.

The franchise fee for this opportunity ranges from $10,000 to $20,000 depending on the number of homes in the territory. There is an ongoing royalty fee of 6% of gross sales with a minimum of $75 per week. There is also a marketing fee of 3% of gross sales and there are minimum weekly requirements for this as well. Start-up costs are estimated at $32,000 to $59,000 and third party financing is allowed. New franchisees must have a minimum net worth of $100,000. The company claims that the typical initial investment is typically $32,000 to $35,000.

Zoomin Groomin franchises must be owner operated. Therefore, if you are looking for a franchise opportunity that can generate passive income, this would not be for you. Zoomin Groomin offers the franchise advertising and marketing programs, training, discounts on product purchases, a centralized call center for appointments and financial accounting services, and public relations support. Their support team helps new owners develop optimal business practices and operations. They promote their “ZipWash” system as a proprietary program that can be operated from a qualified and approved vehicle. They also heavily promote the advantages of leveraged buying power as a strategic partner of Zoomin Groomin and a member of one of the largest pet grooming services in the country.
