Fotozine Franchise Business Overview

Company History

The Fotozine Magazine Portrait was created in 1980 to give the average person an opportunity to experience one of the great perks of fame: his or her picture on the cover of their favorite magazine. Fotozines evolved into one of the most popular products ever sold through the nations theme parks, operating 80 studios from 1980 until 1993.

Over the years, celebrities including Donald Trump, Bob Hope, Dick Van Dyke and Johnny Unitas visited the various studios for their own Fotozine cover.

In the early 90's the developing digital technology made the Fotozine product obsolete. But today, the advancements in software and improvements in photo quality make the Fotozine concept more viable than ever. High resolution images are now available immediately for viewing and editing while high speed color printers reproduce the guest and the publication in rich detail. The software also allows the guest to choose one custom cover line or caption along with his or her own name.

Magazine loyalty is stronger than ever, especially among the youth who identify with the celebrity culture and make up the majority of park guests.

Fotozines is bringing their unique product line back to consumers. Fotozines will give consumers an opportunity to be on the cover of their favorite magazine through our various retail outlets and venues.
