UXMA Franchising

The vendor opportunity at UXMA Franchising

UXMA Franchising operates in the youth services segment with a small, fully company-owned footprint of 7 units. The 2023 FDD does not disclose any franchised locations, meaning the entire system is under direct corporate control. For software vendors, this means a single-buyer sales motion rather than a multi-operator landscape. The addressable market is limited to these 7 units, but the concentration of decision-making at HQ simplifies the pitch process. Average unit volume is not disclosed in the FDD, and year-over-year unit growth is not reported. The royalty rate is 5.0%, and the initial franchise term is 10 years.

Who controls software purchasing

Software purchasing authority sits with the corporate leadership team. The 2023 FDD names Jaime Rodriguez as Chief Executive Officer and Fabricio Rodriguez as Vice President. With no franchisees in the system, there is no multi-unit operator layer to navigate. Vendors should direct all outreach to these two executives. The absence of a parent company suggests UXMA Franchising is independently owned, so no external corporate overlays complicate procurement.

Mandated and current tech stack

The 2023 FDD mandates two systems: Perfectmind and the UXMA Management System. Perfectmind is a known platform in the youth services and activity management space, handling scheduling, registration, and member management. The UXMA Management System is proprietary to the brand. No other mandated or recommended technology vendors are disclosed. For software vendors, this creates opportunities in areas not covered by these two systems—such as financials, HR, payroll, or marketing automation—or as a replacement for the proprietary system if it lacks modern capabilities.

Procurement, renewals, and timing

Item 8 of the FDD, which typically outlines procurement and purchasing requirements, is not available in our corpus. This means the formal procurement model—whether designated supplier, approved supplier, or open—is not disclosed. Vendors will need to inquire directly about purchasing processes. On the renewal side, Item 17 provides a clear framework: franchise agreements run for 10 years and may be renewed for one additional 10-year term. Renewal conditions include not being in default, compliance with all material terms, a 180-day written notice, signing the then-current franchise agreement, a general release, payment of a renewal fee and all monetary obligations, and facility remodeling. This 180-day notice window is a natural point for software vendors to engage, as operators and the franchisor evaluate operational needs ahead of a new term.

How to read the UXMA Franchising FDD

The 2023 UXMA Franchising FDD is embedded below for full review. It was filed with state franchise regulators and contains the complete legal and operational disclosures for the system. Key sections for software vendors include Item 1 (the business and its executives), Item 11 (the franchisor's assistance, advertising, computer systems, and training—where mandated tech is listed), Item 8 (restrictions on sources of products and services, though not available here), and Item 17 (renewal, termination, transfer, and dispute resolution). Reading these sections will clarify the franchisor's control over technology decisions and the contractual windows for vendor engagement.
