What was considered a passing fad several years ago is
now as much a part of our lifestyle as renting a video and drive-thrus. Indoor tanning is major in the fitness and beauty sector. It is a passive form of self indulgence for the look great, feel
great set sweeping all over and encompassing all generations. We are pleased about our growth and development within our franchise business. We are aggressively seeking
franchisees to join the Desert Sun network.
