What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to Azal Coffee's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, besides operating the Azal Coffee franchise system, the company may also offer and sell products and services to its franchisees. Currently, Azal Coffee does not have other business activities but reserves the right to conduct other business activities in the future.
Additionally, Azal Coffee has two affiliates. V60 Coffee, LLC opened an Azal Coffee similar to the franchise being offered in September 2023. Azal Wholesale, LLC provides certain goods required to be purchased by franchisees, including coffee beans, tea, coffee and tea mixes, equipment, paper products, syrups, sauces, milk, cups, mugs, branded products, coffee supplies, bakery goods, and uniforms.
For a prospective franchisee, this means that Azal Coffee's primary focus is on developing and supporting its franchise system. However, franchisees should be aware that Azal Coffee may expand its business activities in the future, which could potentially impact the franchise system. The franchisee will be required to purchase certain goods from Azal Wholesale, LLC.
