About Sun Tan City
Sun Tan City operates in the personal services space and franchises its brand to independent owners. The personal care and lifestyle services category remains one of the more active corners of franchising, and Sun Tan City competes within it with a defined operating model.
Opening a Sun Tan City franchise calls for an estimated total investment of $1,048,790–$1,797,750. That figure includes an initial franchise fee of $30,000, along with costs such as equipment, buildout, signage, initial inventory, and working capital.
Sun Tan City includes a financial performance representation (Item 19) in its current FDD, meaning the franchisor discloses figures on unit-level sales or earnings. Reviewing Item 19 alongside validation calls with existing franchisees is the best way to gauge realistic performance.

Financial Performance (Item 19)
Item 19 discloses average total revenues for 54 Franchised Salons, broken into EFT membership revenue and other revenue.

EFT membership revenue represents roughly 48.1% of total sales revenue across the 154 Franchised Salons, though it can take 3-4 years or more for a salon to reach that percentage.
