This is an opportunity to acquire an established Kumon Education Centre in one of South-East Queensland's fastest-growing regional communities.
Kumon Highfields opened in June 2025 & has already grown to 25 students (44 subjects) while operating at only approximately 18% of its physical capacity. With room for around 250 students, the centre presents a significant opportunity for a new owner to continue building on the foundations already established.
Unlike a new franchise start-up, the hard work has already been completed. The business is fully operational with trained staff, active students, established systems, modern premises & ongoing support from Kumon Australia.
Unlike starting an independent tutoring business from scratch, Kumon provides a globally recognised brand, proven systems, comprehensive training & ongoing support, allowing franchisees to focus on growing enrolments from day one.
