What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Aw's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, under certain circumstances, Aw may appoint a manager to operate a Papa Ray's Pizza Restaurant. If this occurs, Aw charges a management fee. The base management fee is currently $250 per day, plus any incurred expenses. This fee is subject to increase at Aw's discretion.
This management fee becomes payable to Aw if they appoint a manager to oversee the Papa Ray's Pizza Restaurant. This appointment can occur, at Aw's option, after 14 days from the franchisee's receipt of a default notice or 30 days following the franchisee's death or disability.
For a prospective Aw franchisee, this means that in the event of a default or inability to operate the restaurant, they will be responsible for covering the daily management fee of $250, in addition to any expenses incurred by the manager. It is important to note that this fee is subject to change, potentially increasing the financial burden on the franchisee during a period of operational difficulty.
