Regarding All County franchises, which sections of the Franchise Agreement cover the franchisee's obligation for site selection and acquisition/lease?

According to All County's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the franchisee's obligations regarding site selection and acquisition/lease are detailed in Section 8 of the Franchise Agreement. Item 7 and Item 11 of the Disclosure Document also provide relevant information pertaining to this obligation.

Specifically, Item 11 mentions that All County may offer assistance in territory selection if a potential territory has not already been selected. The franchisor's concerns regarding the franchisee's choice of territory include many factors, and All County must approve the proposed franchise location. However, the document clarifies that All County's approval of a franchise location does not guarantee success in the territory, nor does it imply a warranty as to any aspect of the location or territory.

It is important to note that All County does not provide assistance with conforming business premises to local ordinances and building codes, obtaining required permits, or with constructing, remodeling, or decorating the business premises. The franchisee is responsible for these aspects of site selection and acquisition/lease. All County will provide written specifications as to how the business premises must appear, but generally will not own or lease the business premises to the franchisee.
