Currently with Mile High Karate locations in 12 states in the US, Australia and New Zealand, development plans are to operate 250 locations by 2012. In the U.S., Mile High Karate is part of the $10.6 billion health and fitness facility industry. It is estimated that only 2% of the population have experienced martial arts, which leaves enormous opportunity for growth. Mile High Karate focuses primarily on the kids market - and, their parents. Demand has never been higher for developmental programs for kids 4 - 12 and, for health family activities.

To spearhead the launch, Mile High Karate's International Franchise Division has partnered with Bridging Culture Worldwide (BCW), a global consulting firm. BCW CEO Don Southerton notes that Mile High Karate is currently looking for developers in the following regions: Europe, Middle East, Central and South America, and Asia-Pacific.

Southerton point out, “If a developer meets our criteria, which includes the financial resources to fund a multi-unit development plan, we'd love to talk further about Mile High Karate.”

Specific franchise requirements may vary from country to country. Mile High Karate does not grant franchise rights or explore joint venture agreements without meeting potential franchisees in person.
