In franchising, growth speaks louder than any sales pitch. And one of the clearest signs of a brand’s long-term strength is franchisees choosing to reinvest.
At Hand & Stone, that story is playing out across the system. More than 70% of the Hand & Stone franchise network is multi-unit owned, which is a powerful indicator that owners see strong performance and lasting value beyond their first location.
Why Multi-Unit Expansion Is the Ultimate Vote of Confidence
The highest compliment we can receive from a franchisee is when they choose to grow with us again.
Multi-unit ownership requires confidence in the model, the support structure, and the ability to scale successfully. The fact that so many owners expand beyond their first spa reinforces why Hand & Stone is often viewed as the best spa franchise to own for serious operators.
Experienced multi-unit, multi-brand investors know what matters most: consistency, infrastructure, and unit economics that hold up over time. Hand & Stone delivers that kind of foundation, which is exactly why expansion continues to be such a strong part of our story.
To make that growth even more achievable, Hand & Stone offers a 34% discount on franchise fees for additional locations, helping ambitious owners scale efficiently as they build their portfolios.

Multi-Unit Growth in a $1.8 Billion Spa Franchise Industry
The broader market is another reason why franchisees are accelerating expansion.

Franchisees want a brand positioned to capture long-term traffic, and Hand & Stone continues to lead the category with proven momentum, national recognition, and repeatable operations that work across markets.
