What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Antioch Pizza Shop Franchise Disclosure Document, the Development Fee is uniform for all Developers. The Development Fee is the total of the initial franchise fees that will be due for the additional Antioch Pizza Shop Businesses to be developed. However, the franchise fee for the additional franchises after the first franchise will be discounted by 20%. The initial franchise fee paid for additional Dine-In Restaurant and Take-Out/Delivery Restaurants developed under a Multi-Unit Development Agreement will be $32,000, and the initial franchise fee for additional Express Restaurants to be developed under a Multi-Unit Development Agreement will be $28,000.
For example, if a developer signs a Multi-Unit Development Agreement for 2 Dine-In or Take-Out/Delivery Restaurants, they will pay Antioch Pizza Shop $72,000 when they sign the Multi-Unit Development Agreement. If a developer signs a Multi-Unit Development Agreement for 5 Dine-In or Take-Out/Delivery Restaurants, they will pay $168,000.
This means that while the Development Fee structure is the same for all developers, the actual amount of the fee will vary based on the number and type of Antioch Pizza Shop franchises the developer commits to opening. The Development Fee is non-refundable under any circumstances, but it is credited against additional franchise fees.
