What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to All County's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the Franchise Agreement questionnaire includes a section where prospective franchisees must confirm whether they have personally reviewed the Franchise Agreement and its exhibits. This confirmation is part of a broader set of questions designed to ensure the franchisee understands the documents they are signing.
The questionnaire asks franchisees to answer 'Yes' or 'No' to the question: 'Have you received and personally reviewed our Franchise Agreement and each exhibit and schedule attached to it?' A similar question asks if they understand all the information contained within the Franchise Agreement and its exhibits. If the franchisee answers 'No' to understanding the agreement, they are prompted to specify which parts they do not understand.
This process is a standard practice in franchising, intended to protect both the franchisor and franchisee by ensuring the franchisee is fully informed before entering into the agreement. It also includes questions about the Franchise Disclosure Document itself, requiring the franchisee to confirm receipt and understanding of its contents, and to specify any areas of misunderstanding. Additionally, the questionnaire asks if the franchisee received a copy of the Franchise Agreement at least seven days prior to signing it.
