Recession-Proof Growth Potential

Why choose the hair cutting industry? Because people will always need haircuts, and they’ll always be willing to spend money on a haircut that provides them with value. Sport Clips offers the men and boys of Canada a low-cost, high-quality haircut—making our stores uniquely recession proof in any market condition.

That’s why our stores grow at a faster rate than the industry average, dominating market share quickly and with stability.

Sport Clips targets a large and largely ignored niche in the hair cutting market: men and boys.* By focusing on a market that is clear, simple, and lucrative, our franchisees can own and operate their Sport Clips store with confidence. No one haircutting service dominates the Canadian market, making this an exciting time for entrepreneurs who want to buy their own salon franchise.

These are the facts of our industry:

• The Canadian hair care and salon industry is valued at $6.6 billion.
• Sport Clips Canada’s market includes 18 million men and boys nationwide.
• Recession resistant—Sport Clips grows between 5-10% annually regardless of outside economic factors.
• Investors fulfill the need for an essential service that helps customers look and feel good.

Here’s what Sport Clips brings to the mix:

• Relatively low startup investment
• Minimal inventory and no receivables
• Semi-absentee / manager-run business
• Simple, straightforward business operations
• Completely unique customer experience
• Fun, high-energy, sports-themed environment

Why Men’s Hair Care?

Ever since we entered the hair cutting industry, we have realized that men’s hair care offers special advantages to business owners. That’s what has driven Sport Clips’ growth, success, and long-term viability.

The advantages of men’s hair care includes:

• Most efficient segment of salon care industry
  • Less inventory
  • No chemical treatments
  • Simpler styles and easier training
• Higher volume of recurring revenue—men and boys get haircuts every 3-4 weeks on average (vs. 6-8 weeks for ladies)
• No risk of obsolescence—no tech involved
• Stable, cash-based revenue with minimal inventory and no receivables
• Simple and easy-to-execute operations

What Separates Us from the Competition?

Since 1993, Sport Clips has catered to men and boys because we recognized that the salon industry exclusively targeted woman. That’s 50% of the potential market left ignored! Meanwhile, guys were left with barbershops that were declining in number and quality, reducing their options and forcing them to settle for whatever was available.

Even today, with 1,800+ Sports Clips stores, there is very little direct competition in
the “niche” market of men and boys’ hair care.

Despite simple delivery and the lucrative potential of the market, Sport Clips continues to dominate the market as one of the sole providers of hair care for guys.

Part of our success has come from the simplified stylist training program we provide. Men’s haircuts, by and large, require much less training, less time spent on keeping up on trends, and no focus on chemical treatment. As a result, we can offer every Sport Clips stylist with comprehensive men’s barber training on our Sport Clips All-Star haircutting system.
