What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Alloy's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Alloy will provide franchisees with standard specifications and layouts for building and furnishing their facilities under the Area Development Agreement. Specifically, Alloy will review potential sites provided by the franchisee to ensure they meet Alloy's standards and criteria. If a site is approved, Alloy will then provide the franchisee with the necessary specifications and layouts for the facility's construction and furnishing. Alloy will also review the franchisee's site plan and final build-out plans to ensure they conform to Alloy's standards.
Furthermore, before a franchisee opens their franchised business, Alloy will consult with them regarding the build-out for the interior of the franchised business, including interior leasehold improvements and floor plan design. Alloy will provide specifications and requirements based on typical configurations for the layout of a Facility, including lists and specifications of approved fixtures, equipment, and signs needed to outfit and furnish the franchised business in accordance with Alloy's uniform image and standards.
While Alloy offers assistance through specifications and layouts, the franchisee is ultimately responsible for conforming the premises to local ordinances and building codes, obtaining required permits, and constructing the premises. Alloy does not provide assistance with equipment, signs, fixtures, opening inventory, or supplies, except by providing a list of approved suppliers and written brand design specifications. The franchisee is also responsible for the delivery and installation of these items. Franchisees may use Alloy's preferred vendors for pre-construction/construction management or for general contractors while designing and building their Facility.
