Our Story

Good Feet began as a family-owned business in 1992, with a mission to help people who – like the company's founders – suffered tremendous foot and back pain that diminished their quality of life.

Soon after, Good Feet stores began opening in cities across the U.S. Today, the Good Feet system encompasses over 100 individually owned and operated stores throughout the world.

Good Feet Stores sell a proprietary product line of arch supports – available only at The Good Feet Store – plus a selection of shoes and foot-related accessories.

We’re driven by an unwavering commitment to improving the quality of people’s lives – two feet at a time.

Our core belief is that everyone deserves the ability to live the life they love, without letting their foot-related pain and discomfort unduly limit them. We’ve been helping people do just that for over twenty years – serving over a million people along the way.

What Are The Startup Costs?

Low initial investment with high return on investment potential

With the initial investment estimate for a Good Feet Store ranging between $117,670 and $183,175 (See Item 7 of our Franchise Disclosure Document for more details), Good Feet is a relatively low-cost investment opportunity – especially when compared to other health related and retail franchise opportunities.

Why is our initial investment so low?

Three key reasons:

Our product allows for a small store footprint of 1,000 to 1,500 square feet, which reduces real estate and buildout costs
No major capital equipment or significant upfront inventory is required
As a proven franchise with a formula that works, we can keep our fees low so that you have a greater chance of creating a return on your investment in a shorter amount of time
