Investment intensity

What factors affect the investment intensity of the project:

  1. The realisation location or the price of the project design work, material, and human labour in your country
  2. The area of the constructed flight zone
  3. The selected premises – condition, location, arrangement and demandingness of necessary repairs

The price for the realisation of the Papilonia Butterfly House from the project design work to the commercial opening ranges from EUR 250,000 to EUR 350,000, inclusive of the initial franchising fee.
Accompanying costs should be added to this amount, such as rent advance payment, souvenir pre-stocking, initial advertising costs, and other minor expenses.
