What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Cd One Price Cleaners' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, modifications to the franchise agreement generally require a written agreement between all parties involved. Specifically, this applies to Section 21 of the Franchise Agreement, Section 8 of the PUD Addendum, and Section 13 of the Development Rights Agreement. This means that any changes to these agreements must be formally documented and agreed upon by both Cd One Price Cleaners and the franchisee to be legally binding. This protects the franchisee from unilateral changes to the core terms of their franchise.
However, Cd One Price Cleaners retains the right to make changes to the Manual and Operating Plans. Additionally, Cd One Price Cleaners can alter the methods used for calculating and paying Customer Acquisition Payments and/or the Technology Fee under the PUD Addendum. These types of modifications can be implemented by Cd One Price Cleaners without requiring a written agreement from the franchisee.
This distinction is important for prospective franchisees to understand. While the core franchise agreement requires mutual consent for modifications, Cd One Price Cleaners has more flexibility in adjusting operational procedures, manuals, and certain fees. Franchisees should pay close attention to the specific terms outlined in the Franchise Agreement, PUD Addendum, and Development Rights Agreement to fully understand the scope of potential changes and their rights in relation to those changes.
