What This Means (2025 FDD)

According to the 2025 Angry Chickz Franchise Disclosure Document, Angry Chickz is permitted to identify additional actions in the Manual(s) that a franchisee must take following termination or expiration (including nonrenewal) to de-identify the Franchised Business. The franchisee is obligated to perform all such additional actions in a timely manner.

In the event of termination, expiration, or non-renewal of the franchise agreement, the franchisee must immediately cease using all Confidential Information, the Marks, and any confusingly similar trademarks. The franchisee is also required to return the Manual(s), training materials, records, customer lists, IS Data, files, advertising and promotional materials, and all other written materials containing Confidential Information.

Additionally, the franchisee is responsible for making cosmetic changes to the Franchised Business at their own cost to ensure it no longer contains or resembles Angry Chickz's proprietary designs and trade dress. This includes removing materials that identify the business as an Angry Chickz Restaurant, such as distinctive cosmetic features, lighting, FFE, décor, logos, signs, menus, decals, floor and wall coverings, and colors, as directed by Angry Chickz. Angry Chickz may request immediate access to the Franchised Business to make these cosmetic changes.
