What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to All Team's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, when notice is required under the franchise agreement, it must be in writing and sent either by registered or certified mail, or through personal delivery to the franchisee's agency address or to All Team's office. Alternatively, it can be sent to any other address designated according to the relevant section of the agreement.
Receipt of this notice is considered to have occurred three days after mailing, or immediately upon personal delivery, whichever happens first. This means that All Team franchisees are held responsible for the contents of a notice three days after it was mailed, regardless of when they actually read it.
This clause is fairly standard in franchise agreements. Franchisees should ensure that All Team has their current and correct address to avoid missing important notices. If a franchisee anticipates being away from their agency address, they should arrange for mail to be checked regularly to ensure timely receipt of any notices from All Team.
