Overview

Shrunk 3D is the world’s first fully mobile 3D photography franchise, offering customers a unique way to capture memories through high-definition, full-color figurines. Using a proprietary scanning booth, customers can be scanned in seconds and receive a tangible 3D-printed replica of themselves, creating a lasting keepsake. The business operates in the rapidly growing $15 billion 3D printing industry and serves a variety of events, from graduations and sporting events to corporate functions. Franchisees benefit from a streamlined business model where corporate handles backend printing, shipping, and website development, allowing owners to focus on daily operations and customer engagement.

As a franchise owner, revenue is generated through event bookings and customer purchases of 3D figurines, which range in size from 3 to 12 inches. The business is designed for efficiency, with low overhead, no inventory requirements, and minimal staffing—typically just one to two employees. Owners can operate the business on a flexible schedule, with the ability to work part-time or semi-absentee while corporate support ensures smooth operations. Franchisees also gain access to national accounts and targeted business lists to help them secure bookings and grow their customer base.

This franchise is ideal for sales-driven entrepreneurs who enjoy networking and event marketing. While no technical experience is required, successful owners should be comfortable managing small teams, booking events, and promoting the business locally. The flexible and mobile nature of the business makes it a great fit for those looking for a dynamic, high-margin opportunity with the freedom to choose when and where to operate.
