What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Aw's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the estimated cost for insurance ranges from $900 to $16,000. This cost is incurred as arranged with the insurance company. Item 8 of the FDD and the Franchise Agreement describe the required insurance coverage.
The FDD notes that the premiums franchisees will be charged can vary from market to market. The lower end of the estimate, $900, represents a minimum initial payment, while the higher end, $16,000, represents payment in full of the annual premium.
Prospective Aw franchisees should consider that insurance costs can vary significantly based on location, coverage levels, and payment plans. It is important to obtain quotes from multiple insurance providers to ensure competitive rates and adequate coverage as specified by Aw.
