What This Means (2025 FDD)

According to All County's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the Transfer Fee is due concurrently with the transfer of the franchise. The total transfer fee is $12,500, with the transferor paying $10,000 plus costs, and the transferee paying $2,500. This fee is paid to All County if a franchisee wants to transfer their franchise to a third party.

Franchise transfer fees are common in the franchise industry. They usually cover the franchisor's administrative costs and lost revenue from the transfer. The fee compensates All County for the work involved in approving the transfer and onboarding a new franchisee.

It is important for prospective franchisees to understand all the costs associated with transferring their franchise, including the transfer fee and any other costs that may be incurred. Franchisees should carefully review the Franchise Agreement to understand the terms and conditions of transferring their franchise. Franchisees should also consider the timing of the transfer fee payment and ensure that they have sufficient funds available to pay the fee when it is due.
