What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to All County's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, after the termination or expiration of the Franchise Agreement, a franchisee cannot identify themselves or their business as a current or former All County business. However, there is an exception to this rule.
Specifically, this restriction does not apply to other All County businesses that the franchisee continues to own and operate. This means that if a franchisee owns multiple All County franchises and only one is terminated, they are still permitted to identify their other businesses as All County franchises.
This exception allows franchisees with multiple locations to maintain their branding for the remaining All County businesses, even if one location's agreement is terminated. However, the franchisee must still adhere to all other post-termination obligations for the terminated business, such as removing All County signage and marketing materials from that specific location.
