What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Alloy's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, any formal notice, demand, or communication related to the franchise agreement must be documented in writing and include the signature of the party who is issuing the notice. The notice should be delivered either in person, through a recognized overnight delivery service, or via the United States Postal Service with prepaid postage.
For critical communications like default or termination notices, Alloy requires that these be sent through registered or certified mail to ensure proof of delivery. If the notice is intended for Alloy, it should be addressed to the specified address in Roswell, Georgia. If the notice is for the franchisee, it should be sent to the address listed on the Data Sheet or the physical location of the Alloy facility, unless an alternative address has been formally communicated in writing.
Alloy states that a notice is considered officially received once it has been properly mailed or delivered as per the outlined methods. This requirement ensures that all formal communications are verifiable and acknowledged, reducing potential misunderstandings or disputes between Alloy and its franchisees.
