What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 C12 Group Franchise Disclosure Document, a franchisee who wishes to terminate their agreement must first attend the next available Semi-Annual Chair Training. This requirement is in place to encourage transparency and open communication, aligning with the principles of the C12 Group.
Before providing written notice of termination, the franchisee must communicate their reasons for wanting to terminate the agreement to the other franchisees and Area Chairs present at the Semi-Annual Chair Training. This provides an opportunity for feedback and discussion among peers within the C12 Group system.
After receiving feedback from other franchisees and Area Chairs during the training, the franchisee can then proceed to terminate the agreement without cause by providing ninety (90) days' written notice to C12 Group. This process ensures that terminations are considered thoughtfully within the C12 Group community.
