When is the Renewal Fee due for an Antioch Pizza Shop franchise?

According to the 2025 Antioch Pizza Shop Franchise Disclosure Document, the Renewal Fee is due 90 days before the expiration of the Franchise Agreement. The fee is 15% of the then-applicable initial franchise fee. This fee is payable if the franchisee chooses to renew their franchise at the end of the current term.

Franchise agreements typically have a set term, often 10 or 20 years, and renewal is not automatic. The franchisee must apply for a renewal and meet certain conditions, which often include being in good standing with Antioch Pizza Shop and updating the restaurant to current brand standards. The initial franchise fee can vary over time, so the renewal fee will be based on whatever the current fee is at the time of renewal, not the fee paid when the franchise was originally purchased.

It is important for a prospective Antioch Pizza Shop franchisee to understand the terms and conditions for renewal, as failing to renew would mean losing the right to operate the franchise. Planning for this expense well in advance of the due date is crucial for financial stability and continued operation of the Antioch Pizza Shop business.
