Business Description
An opportunity to acquire a fully operational youth education franchise, ranked #1 STEM Child Enrichment Franchise by Entrepreneur Magazine. This business is a leader in its community, teaching children ages 5–14 critical skills in technology and problem-solving. It leverages a proprietary, gamified curriculum where students learn through technology-centric programs and coding languages. This unique approach turns learning into an adventure, driving high student retention, and recurring membership revenue.
Financials reflect an owner-operator model. The business is currently run semi-absentee, with a manager on site roughly 30 hours per week and a team of ten, and it benefits from well-trained staff, a loyal customer base, and established operational systems. The center sits on Sierra Highway in Newhall, the southern gateway to the Santa Clarita Valley — a self-contained trade area of more than 228,000 people where 24.6% of residents are under 18 and median household income is $123,062. Five public school districts feed the area, and families here actively invest in STEM-based enrichment for their children, creating consistent demand and year-round enrollment stability.
A buyer will be able to bypass the 8–12 month startup period and capital investment required for a new build-out. The new owner steps directly into a turnkey operation with trained staff, a loyal customer base, and all furniture, fixtures, and equipment (FF&E) included. The center has a five-year trading history and has produced Seller's Discretionary Earnings as high as $132,194, averaging $94,480 across the last three years.
The franchise is undergoing global expansion, further enhancing brand recognition and long-term value for franchisees.
Key Investment Highlights
• Owner-operated upside potential: Currently run semi-absentee with paid management in place; a hands-on owner can absorb the management roles and capture those wages as earnings.
• Turnkey Business: Fully furnished space with trained staff, active social media presence, and strong community recognition.
• Recurring revenue model: Multiple income streams from monthly memberships, school-break camps, the Code Ninjas JR program for younger children, and seasonal events.
• Prime Location: Sierra Highway commercial corridor in Newhall, with convenient access from across the Santa Clarita Valley and proximity to well-regarded school districts.
• Strong Demographics: A trade area of 228,430 residents where 24.6% are under 18, median household income is $123,062, and 39.8% of adults hold a bachelor's degree or higher.
• Industry Growth: STEM-related jobs are projected to grow twice as fast as non-STEM jobs (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics).
• Comprehensive franchise support: Includes curriculum development, marketing, and training to smooth transition for new ownership.
• Benefit from a global franchise: The franchise continues to expand internationally, strengthening long-term brand equity and franchisee value.
