What is the initial investment to open a HobbyTown?
The initial investment for owning a HobbyTown franchise varies based on the size of your store, your opening inventory and any build-out requirements. Qualified franchise owners must have $150,000–$200,000 in liquid assets to invest in opening a store.
HobbyTown doesn’t offer financing, but we can help you secure a loan through the SBA or help leverage your 401(k) as a rollover for a business startup through FranFund.
