What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Amorino Franchise Disclosure Document, Amorino has the right to be acquired by another business entity. Specifically, Amorino can merge with or acquire other Business Entities, or be acquired by them.
This clause in the franchise agreement protects Amorino's interests, allowing the company to adapt to changing market conditions, pursue growth opportunities, or undergo restructuring without requiring franchisee consent. For a prospective franchisee, this means that the parent company could change during the term of their agreement.
While Amorino retains the right to transfer the agreement, there are stipulations in place to ensure the assignee is capable of performing the obligations and expressly assumes the obligations from the date of assignment. This provides some assurance that the new entity will uphold the terms of the franchise agreement. However, franchisees waive claims or damages related to the loss of association with CPUSA, LLC as the Franchisor under the Agreement, the "Amorino" name, the Proprietary Products, the Proprietary Marks (or any variation thereof) and the System.
