What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Anago's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, an Anago Subfranchise Rights Business must operate from a location approved by Anago. This location, referred to as the Premises, must be within the franchisee's designated area.
The required equipment includes a business telephone, a computer system with Internet access, and facsimile and electronic mail capabilities. The computer system must also have software that meets Anago's standards and specifications.
If the franchisee leases the Premises from a third party, both the franchisee and the landlord must sign and deliver to Anago a collateral assignment of the franchisee's rights under the lease. This agreement allows Anago to assume the lease if the Subfranchise Rights Agreement is terminated or expires. Anago considers factors such as location, ease of access, the location of competitors, and the cost and condition of the facility when approving a site. Franchisees must secure their Premises within 90 days of signing the Subfranchise Rights Agreement, or Anago has the right to terminate the agreement.
