Turquoise Franchise

The vendor opportunity at Turquoise Franchise

Turquoise Franchise presents a minimal addressable market for software vendors, with only 1 total unit in operation as disclosed in the 2025 FDD. That single location is company-owned, and no franchised units are reported. The brand operates in the education sector with its headquarters in Arizona. For a vendor, the opportunity is confined to a single-location sale unless the franchisor initiates a growth phase, which is not evident in the current disclosure. The royalty rate is 6.0%, and the initial franchise term is 10 years, but no average unit volume (AUV) or year-over-year unit growth percentage is provided.

Who controls software purchasing

The 2025 FDD does not detail a formal IT or procurement department. The only executive named in Item 1 is Tonia Rokeby, listed as the Agent for Service of Process. In a system of this size, software purchasing authority almost certainly resides with the owner or a general manager at the HQ level. Vendors should not expect a multi-layered buying center; instead, they will likely engage directly with the individual who oversees all operations for the single unit. No other decision-makers are mapped in our corpus.

Mandated and current tech stack

Turquoise Franchise mandates a specific set of technology systems for its operations. According to the FDD, franchisees (or in this case, the company-owned unit) must use QuickBooks by Intuit Inc. for accounting, Square by Block, Inc. for point-of-sale and payment processing, Vincipia Wine Club for membership or club management, and Wave for additional financial software. This stack covers core operational needs, leaving little room for displacement unless a vendor can demonstrate a clear integration or efficiency gain that complies with the franchisor's standards.

Procurement, renewals, and timing

The procurement model is not disclosed in the most recent FDD; Item 8 contains no extract regarding designated suppliers, approved vendors, or purchasing cooperatives. Renewal conditions, outlined in Item 17, require advance notice, full compliance with all obligations, renovation to then-current standards, and signing the then-current form of franchise agreement along with a general release. The renewal term length is not specified. With no recent unit growth and a single existing location, contract windows are not tied to a predictable development schedule. Vendors must monitor for any change in expansion strategy or a renewal event at the sole unit.

How to read the Turquoise Franchise FDD

The 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document is the primary source for verifying the brand's obligations, restrictions, and technology mandates. Key sections for software vendors include Item 11 for the mandated tech stack and Item 8 for procurement restrictions, though the latter is silent in this filing. The document is filed with state franchise regulators and is available for review in the embedded viewer below.
