What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 All Dogs Unleashed Franchise Disclosure Document, the Construction Project Management Fee ranges from $0 to $10,000. The method of payment is "As arranged." This fee is due "As incurred" and is paid to third-party suppliers.
This means that the specific payment arrangements for the Construction Project Management Fee are not fixed by All Dogs Unleashed. Instead, the franchisee will need to negotiate the payment method with the third-party suppliers providing the construction project management services. This could involve setting up a payment schedule or other arrangements that suit both parties.
As a prospective All Dogs Unleashed franchisee, it's important to discuss these payment terms with potential construction project managers to understand their requirements and ensure they align with your budget and cash flow. Since the fee is paid as incurred, franchisees should budget carefully and maintain open communication with the project manager to avoid unexpected costs.
