To whom should the check be made payable for the initial franchise fee deposit for an Annex Brands franchise?

According to the 2025 FDD, the check for the initial franchise fee deposit for an Annex Brands franchise should be made payable to "Annex Brands, Inc. or its designated representative." This instruction is provided on the Initial Franchise Fee Deposit Receipt form.

This means that when a prospective franchisee is ready to pay the initial franchise fee deposit, they must ensure the check is written out exactly as specified. This ensures that Annex Brands or their authorized representative can properly process the payment.

It is important to follow this instruction precisely to avoid any delays or complications in the franchise approval process. Franchisees should confirm with Annex Brands if there are any specific representatives designated to receive payments at the time of payment.
