As the Del Sol product line continues to grow, the price for opening a store increases as well. The estimated minimum price for opening a store is $150,000.

The store opening and approval process varies according to each location. If, for example, you would like to have your store open by August, here is an estimated time-line:

February: Request information on how to open a Del Sol store and submit financial application
March: If application is approved, you would begin looking for a location
April: Find an available location and submit a business plan to Del Sol
May: Representatives from Del Sol's Sales Department would conduct a location approval visit
June: If location is approved, you would sign an agreement with Del Sol and your leasing agent, and begin the store opening process
July: Ship product and other build-out items to the store location and begin the build-out
August: Open your Del Sol store to the public

This process may take longer or shorter depending on how fast you find an available store location. The process generally takes around 7 months but varies significantly per location. We have had stores open in under 90 days from the time of the first call, while others have taken longer than a year. How long will it take you? Give us a call and we'll help answer that question to the best of our abilities.
