Apex Fun Run operates 131 total units — 119 franchised and 12 company-owned — according to its 2026 FDD. Franchised outlets grew 10.185% year over year. The Item 19 figure is $916,578.05 for the cohort of all Apex franchised businesses that provided financials and were open and fully operating at least 12 months as of June 30, 2025, consisting of 27 franchised businesses.
For software vendors, the addressable market is the full franchise system: 119 franchised locations plus 12 company-owned units. The franchisor sets technology requirements centrally, so a sale to HQ can cascade across the network.
Item 2 of the FDD names Jamie Krasnov (CEO), DeNita Carani (Chief Operating Officer), and Zak Khan (Vice President of Franchise Development). The franchisor retains the right to change required software or add new software at any time, which means the buying center sits at the franchisor level, not the franchisee level. A vendor pitch should target the operations and franchise-development leadership named in the filing.
Item 11 requires each franchisee to purchase or own a computer system consisting of a late-model desktop or laptop with the current Microsoft Operating System or macOS, the current version of Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) or better, Google Docs, and Google Calendar. Franchisees must maintain the system in good working order and may be required to upgrade hardware or software to conform to the franchisor's then-current specifications. The franchisor reserves the right to change the software or technology that franchisees must use or add new software or technology at any time.
Heritage Pay, an affiliate, is currently an approved supplier for payment processing. The FDD names no other operational or POS systems.
Item 8 uses an approved-supplier list. Franchisees must purchase source-restricted goods and services from approved or designated suppliers, which may include the franchisor or its affiliates. Some items have specific standards and specifications, and some may be purchased from any supplier. Franchisees may propose a supplier for approval by written request. The franchisor may designate itself or an affiliate as an exclusive supplier for certain items in the future, including equipment, signs, and branded marketing materials. The franchisor has negotiated purchase agreements with suppliers for prizes, equipment, and supplies in bulk at discounted prices.
Item 17 provides for renewal in additional 10-year terms, up to three additional terms, if the franchisee is in good standing. Renewal requires signing the then-current form of franchise agreement, signing a general release, paying the renewal fee, and upgrading equipment to comply with then-current standards. This creates recurring windows where software and hardware requirements may be revisited.
