For All States M.E.D., what is the franchisee required to print in the provided space?

According to the 2024 All States M.E.D. Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees are required to print their name in the provided space on the receipt. They must also sign and date the receipt before returning a copy to All States M.E.D.

This receipt serves as an acknowledgment that the franchisee has received and reviewed the Disclosure Document, which summarizes key provisions of the Franchise Agreement. The FDD is intended to be read carefully along with all related agreements.

All States M.E.D. requires this signed receipt to confirm that they have provided the Disclosure Document within the legally mandated timeframe, which varies by state. For example, Iowa requires the document be provided at the earlier of the first personal meeting or 14 calendar days before signing any binding agreement or making a payment. Michigan requires at least 10 business days, and New York requires the earlier of the first personal meeting or 10 business days. This ensures compliance with federal and state franchise laws designed to protect prospective franchisees by giving them adequate time to consider the investment opportunity.

If All States M.E.D. fails to deliver the Disclosure Document on time, or if the document contains false, misleading, or omits material information, it may constitute a violation of federal and state law. This should be reported to the Federal Trade Commission and the relevant State Administrator.
