What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to All County's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the estimated annual range for professional organization fees is $300 to $1,000. These fees are paid to any professional organizations that All County requires its franchisees to belong to. The exact amount varies depending on the specific organizations mandated.
For a prospective All County franchisee, this means setting aside funds for these required memberships. The fees are not paid to All County itself, but directly to the professional organizations. It is important to note that these fees are in addition to other fees outlined in the FDD, such as the advertising fee and royalty fees.
Unlike many other fees listed in the Item 6, the Professional Organization Fees are noted as an exception to the non-refundable fees. This implies that under certain circumstances, these fees could potentially be refundable, although the FDD does not elaborate on what those circumstances might be. A prospective franchisee should inquire about the specific professional organizations All County requires them to join and the benefits of these memberships.
