Does All County require franchisees to acknowledge that no employee made promises about the franchise contrary to the information in the Disclosure Document?

According to All County's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees are asked to acknowledge whether any employee or person speaking on behalf of All County made statements or promises concerning the franchise that contradict the information provided in the Disclosure Document. This acknowledgment is part of a broader questionnaire that All County uses to ensure franchisees understand key aspects of the franchise offering.

Specifically, the questionnaire asks franchisees to confirm whether any employee or representative of All County made statements or promises about revenues, profits, or operating costs that differ from the details in the Disclosure Document. It also covers whether any statements were made regarding the potential earnings or total revenue of a franchised business. Additionally, franchisees are asked to acknowledge whether any promises were made about operating costs that contradict the information in the Disclosure Document.

This process serves to protect both the franchisee and All County. By having franchisees acknowledge these points, All County aims to ensure that franchisees are making informed decisions based on the official information provided in the FDD, rather than relying on potentially inaccurate or misleading statements from employees. This helps to mitigate future disputes or claims of misrepresentation. Franchisees should carefully consider these questions and answer truthfully, as their responses could have legal implications.
