Business Description:

BounceU is a family entertainment experience whose time has come in Central PA. This location, which opened in March 2008, has experienced continuous growth and created much excitement among its core demographic which is families with young children. The playground facility offers an indoor, climate-controlled stadium filled with giant inflatable play structures. Parents can relax and enjoy themselves as the trained staff coordinates, sets up, supervises and facilitates each event. Young families and groups from schools, clubs, etc. have the opportunity to enjoy active play time through Preschool Play-date (7 & under), All Ages Open Bounce, Family Bounce Night, Summer Camps, as well as private parties. One of the most popular attractions is the Birthday Party Package. Depending on the party chosen, it may include a 2 hour event, invitations, pizza, drinks, balloons, birthday cake and goodie bags for the attendees. There are party rooms, complete with a special throne, for the birthday boy or girl. Most importantly, the business locations are safe, secure and have a trained staff. This franchise territory covers Harrisburg East, Lebanon County and the Elizabethtown area. Currently this location is drawing from all over South Central PA and is gaining momentum as moms, dads, teachers and group leaders become more aware of this alternative type of family entertainment. There is also an adjoining territory available through the owners of this franchise location. The current owners have integrated marketing and advertising through exposure in Clipper Magazine, Central Penn Parent Magazine, and database mailings. Additional opportunities for growth would be to add direct marketing directed toward community involvement, private and public schools, churches, youth sporting programs and daycare centers, as well through other advertising media avenues.

Potential for Growth:

The franchise, although a relatively new concept in Central PA, has experienced substantial growth over the past year. Its popularity continues to expand as more families become aware of this exciting form of family entertainment which offers fun and exercise in a safe, clean, and friendly environment. A new owner would also have the opportunity to purchase the adjoining franchise territory for an additional $40,000 investment.
