What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Buff City Soap Franchise Disclosure Document, a franchisee must execute an Acknowledgment of Terms and Conditions before being granted access to the Appointedd Solution. Buff City Soap has a contract with SALOCA LTD for the use of their online booking platform, Appointedd, and all franchisees are required to use this solution in connection with their Buff City Soap Makeries.
This requirement ensures that all franchisees are aware of and agree to the terms and conditions associated with using the Appointedd Solution. This is a standard practice in franchising, where franchisors often mandate the use of specific software or platforms to maintain consistency and brand standards across all locations.
By requiring this acknowledgment, Buff City Soap aims to ensure that franchisees are compliant with the system standards and are aware of their obligations related to the use of the Appointedd Solution. This helps to protect both the franchisee and the franchisor by establishing clear expectations and responsibilities.
