Budget estimate

$12,000 – $72,000

No explicit budget is provided, but franchise agreements for beach‑equipment rentals typically generate modest revenues based on equipment rental fees, seasonal demand, and franchise fees. Assuming an average rental fee of $5–$15 per item per day, with a modest fleet of 200 items and a 4‑month peak season, annual gross revenue per franchise could range from $120,000 to $360,000. After operating expenses (staff, maintenance, insurance), net profit might be roughly 10‑20% of gross, yielding an estimated budget to the contractor of $12,000–$72,000 per year. This estimate is based on comparable small‑scale recreation‑equipment rental businesses in similar coastal municipalities.
