Brand Analysis
FedEx Office is a wholly owned FedEx subsidiary with no franchise program and no disclosure document. The comparable counter you can actually buy is The UPS Store, where the 2026 FDD prices a new traditional center at $222,368 to $606,081.
Brand Analysis
Yes. Jiffy Lube International is a Shell subsidiary, and 1,765 of the system's 2,083 US service centers were franchised at the end of 2025. The 2026 FDD sets a $35,000 fee and a $211,000 to $510,000 investment range that leaves out the land and the building.
Brand Analysis
Yes, McDonald's is a franchise — roughly 95% of its 40,000+ locations worldwide are operated by independent franchisees. But McDonald's franchise model is unlike almost any other brand. Here's how it actually works.
Novus Global requires a $5,000 initial franchise fee and a total initial investment range of $31,450–$68,200, per the most recent FDD on file.
Novus Global franchises are sold by Novus Global Franchising, LLC, the franchisor entity of record on its Franchise Disclosure Document. Item 1 of the FDD discloses the corporate structure, including any parent companies and predecessors.
No. Novus Global does not include a financial performance representation in its FDD. Prospective buyers should rely on validation calls with existing franchisees and benchmark against industry medians.
Franchisees pay a royalty of 32.5% and an advertising fund contribution of 2% on gross sales as defined in Item 6 of the FDD.
As of their 2026 FDD, Novus Global has 71 total locations. This information comes from Item 20 of the FDD.
