Amorino Franchise · 2025 FDDAnswer from 2025 FDD Document
We may from time to time inspect and evaluate the facilities and products of any approved supplier and revoke its general approval of particular products or suppliers when we determine, in our sole discretion, that such products or suppliers no longer meet our standards. We will provide the Store with written notice of such revocation, at which time (or at the time set forth in the notice) the Store must stop selling any disapproved products and stop purchasing any products from any disapproved supplier.

What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Amorino's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Amorino retains the authority to inspect and evaluate its approved suppliers. If Amorino determines, in its sole discretion, that a supplier or its products no longer meet Amorino's standards, Amorino can revoke its approval.
Amorino will provide written notice to the franchisee, and the franchisee must then cease selling any disapproved products and stop purchasing from the disapproved supplier. This change must occur at the time of notification or at a later date specified in the notice.
This provision is important for prospective franchisees because it highlights Amorino's control over the supply chain and product quality. While this ensures brand consistency, it also means franchisees must adapt quickly to changes in approved suppliers and product offerings, which could impact their operations and potentially their profitability if a replacement supplier is more expensive or less reliable.
