Is the Franchise Portal Fee payable by a Bevaris Alliance franchisee to the Franchisor?

According to the 2024 Bevaris Alliance Franchise Disclosure Document, a franchisee is required to pay the Franchisor a Franchise Portal Fee. The FDD states that the franchisee "shall pay Franchisor the Franchise Portal Fee."

In addition to the Franchise Portal Fee, the franchisee is also responsible for paying other fees to Bevaris Alliance, including the Initial Fee, Royalty Fee, System Marketing Fund Fee, Transfer Fee, Technology Fee, Mystery Shopper Program Fee, and Third-Party Quality Assurance Audit Fee. The Royalty Fee is 10% of the franchisee's weekly gross sales receipts. The System Marketing Fund Fees are 2% of the Gross Sales Receipts payable by the Franchisee to the Franchisor.

Prospective franchisees should carefully consider all these fees and how they impact the overall cost and profitability of operating a Bevaris Alliance franchise. It is important to review the franchise agreement and related documents thoroughly to understand the specific terms and conditions associated with each fee.
