Franchises whose disclosed investment range STARTS under $100,000
Brands whose Item 7 low-end total initial investment is under $100,000. The high end of these ranges usually exceeds $100,000 — often substantially — so this is a starting-point screen, not a promise of a sub-$100K opening.
How this list is built. Metric: Item 7 low end < $100K. Source: each brand’s FDD (Items 6, 7, 19 and 20), as recorded on its profile with citations. Brands without the required disclosure are listed separately below rather than ranked with a guessed value. The low end of an Item 7 range is rarely the typical outcome, and the high end of most ranges here is well above $100,000. Check the high end and the assumptions on each profile.
