What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to All County's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees must immediately notify All County of the death or incapacity of the Managing Owner. The Managing Owner is the individual with the authority to legally bind the franchisee in dealings with All County and ensure compliance with agreements.
In addition to the immediate notification, the franchisee must appoint a new Managing Owner within sixty days of the death or incapacity. All County retains the right to review and disapprove the newly appointed Managing Owner within ten days of receiving notice of the appointment.
This immediate notification requirement ensures that All County is promptly informed of any changes in the management and control of the franchise. The subsequent appointment of a new Managing Owner within sixty days ensures business continuity, while All County's right to review and disapprove maintains their oversight of the franchise's operations and compliance.
