What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 C12 Group Franchise Disclosure Document, a transferee may be required to complete New Chair Training. The franchisor may require the transferee to complete this training as a condition of approving the transfer.
Specifically, C12 Group may condition its consent to any transfer based on the evaluation of successor or transferee qualifications, business plan viability, and the transferee's successful completion of New Chair Training. The transferee must also pay a $6,000 transfer fee. If the transferee is not an existing C12 Group franchisee, they must pay a training fee to the franchisor.
This requirement ensures that the transferee is adequately prepared to operate the C12 Group franchise according to the franchisor's standards. The transfer is only approved after the transferee is deemed qualified by C12 Group, the transfer fee is paid, all outstanding amounts owed by the franchisee are paid, the franchisee executes a general release, and a new franchise agreement is signed if more than 50% of the business is transferred.
