Can Alloy conduct on-site evaluations of proposed sites for new facilities?

According to Alloy's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Alloy retains the right to charge franchisees a site evaluation fee for each on-site evaluation they conduct. This indicates that Alloy may perform on-site evaluations of potential locations for new franchise facilities.

For a prospective franchisee, this means that Alloy has the option to assess a proposed site directly. If Alloy chooses to do so, the franchisee will be responsible for paying the associated site evaluation fee. The FDD does not specify the amount of this fee, only that it will be Alloy's "then-current site evaluation fee".

It is important for potential franchisees to understand that while Alloy must consent to the site in writing, Alloy makes no guarantees concerning the success of the Facility located on any site to which they consent. Therefore, while Alloy's site evaluation may provide valuable insights, the ultimate responsibility for the site's suitability and the success of the franchise lies with the franchisee. A prospective franchisee should inquire about the current site evaluation fee and the criteria Alloy uses during its evaluations to make an informed decision.
