What happens to the interest earned on monies contributed to the All County Advertising Fund?

According to All County's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, all interest earned on monies contributed to the Advertising Fund will be used to pay advertising costs before other assets of the Advertising Fund are expended. This means that any interest accrued from the advertising fees paid by franchisees will be prioritized to cover advertising expenses.

For a prospective All County franchisee, this is a potential benefit because it ensures that the advertising fund is managed in a way that maximizes its resources for advertising purposes. By using the interest earned first, it reduces the reliance on the principal contributions from franchisees, potentially extending the fund's capacity to support advertising initiatives.

This policy promotes transparency and responsible financial management of the advertising fund. Franchisees can be assured that any returns on the advertising fund's assets are directly reinvested into advertising efforts, aligning with the fund's primary purpose of enhancing the All County brand and supporting its franchisees through marketing and promotional activities.
