Fresh Aire franchise profit — what the FDD discloses
Plainly: Fresh Aire does not disclose franchise profit or revenue. Its most recent FDD makes no Item 19 financial performance representation, so there is no franchisor-backed earnings figure for Fresh Aire — any number quoted elsewhere is an estimate, not a disclosure. The absence is itself worth weighing; the fees, litigation and outlet churn Fresh Aire's FDD does contain are on this page. For brands that put earnings on paper, see Other franchises with disclosed Item 19 earnings.
Fresh Aire lawsuits & legal history (FDD Item 3)
Fresh Aire's most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2024) discloses no litigation in Item 3. That is a real signal rather than a gap: the FTC Franchise Rule requires a franchisor to disclose material litigation involving itself, its predecessors, parents, affiliates and management, so an empty Item 3 in a current filing means there was nothing it was required to report. It is worth reading alongside the churn numbers — a system can have a clean Item 3 and still be losing franchisees, which is what Item 20 shows.
Fresh Aire closures & failure rate
Before you sign, Fresh Aire will hand you a list of current owners to call as references — and they choose who's on that list. It won't include the owners who quit, got bought out, or were forced out last year. The FDD does report that number, even though the reference list leaves those people off. Below is what Fresh Aire's most recent filing shows, and whether it's normal for a other of this kind.
The closest thing an FDD has to a failure rate is Item 20 — outlet openings, closures, terminations and non-renewals, reported by the franchisor. Fresh Aire's outlet tables did not machine-read cleanly; Item 20 of the source FDD has them.
Who owns Fresh Aire?
Fresh Aire's franchise is offered by Fresh Aire Franchise, LLC — the franchisor named on the cover of its most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2024), and the entity a franchisee actually signs with. That name comes straight off the filing at CA DFPI; it identifies the franchisor, not necessarily the ultimate parent company behind it.

Fresh Aire franchise — frequently asked
Who owns Fresh Aire — who is the franchisor?
Fresh Aire's most recently filed FDD (2024) names Fresh Aire Franchise, LLC as the franchisor — the entity you would actually sign the franchise agreement with, as stated on the disclosure document itself. A registry filing names the franchisor, not necessarily its ultimate parent company.
How much does a Fresh Aire franchise cost?
Fresh Aire's most recently filed FDD (Item 7) puts the total estimated initial investment at a range disclosed in Item 7. That price is the franchisor's own estimate of what it takes to open, not a quote.
How much profit does a Fresh Aire franchise make?
Fresh Aire makes no Item 19 financial performance representation, so there is no franchisor-disclosed revenue or profit figure for Fresh Aire at all — and profit would never be disclosed even where earnings are, because it depends on your rent, labor and how you operate. Any profit figure quoted elsewhere is an estimate, not a disclosure.
Does Fresh Aire disclose financial performance (Item 19)?
No — Fresh Aire's most recent FDD makes no Item 19 financial performance representation. Its absence is worth weighing.
Are there lawsuits against Fresh Aire?
No — Fresh Aire's most recently filed FDD (2024) discloses no litigation in Item 3. Franchisors must disclose material litigation involving themselves, their predecessors, parents, affiliates and management, so an empty Item 3 is a genuine signal rather than an omission.
Is Fresh Aire a good franchise to buy?
Nobody can answer that from Fresh Aire's numbers alone — it comes down to how its investment, earnings, litigation and franchisee churn stack up against other peers and against your own budget.
