What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Angry Chickz Franchise Disclosure Document, the Transfer/Assignment fee for an Area Development Agreement is due before the transfer occurs. The fee is equal to 25% of Angry Chickz's then-current initial franchise fee, in addition to any out-of-pocket costs Angry Chickz incurs related to the transfer or assignment, including attorney's fees.
This means that if a franchisee with an Area Development Agreement wants to transfer or assign their agreement to someone else, they must pay this fee to Angry Chickz before the transfer can be completed. The fee covers Angry Chickz's costs associated with processing the transfer and ensures they are compensated for the change in ownership.
Prospective franchisees should be aware of this fee and factor it into their financial planning if they anticipate potentially transferring their Area Development Agreement in the future. It's important to note that the fee is based on the then-current initial franchise fee, so it could fluctuate over time. Franchisees should also clarify with Angry Chickz what specific costs are included as 'out of pocket costs' to get a clear understanding of the total expense.
