What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to All Dogs Unleashed's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the estimated initial investment for a construction project management fee ranges from $0 to $10,000. This fee is paid as arranged and incurred to third-party suppliers.
Note 7 in Item 7 clarifies that this fee covers payments to the Project Manager, if All Dogs Unleashed requires the franchisee to hire one. The Project Manager provides construction project management services, including managing competitive bidding processes, overseeing the general contractor, and managing vendors and orders. The estimate also covers any travel costs for the Project Manager to visit the site for surveying or supervising local contractors and construction suppliers during any stage of the design and construction process.
This means that an All Dogs Unleashed franchisee may not have to pay this fee if a project manager is not required. However, if one is required, the franchisee should budget up to $10,000 for these services. It is important for prospective franchisees to discuss with All Dogs Unleashed under what circumstances a project manager is required to better understand this potential cost.
