What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Clean Your Dirty Face's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees must conspicuously identify themselves as the owner of their business to all persons, including customers, suppliers, public officials, and employees. This means clearly indicating that they operate their Clean Your Dirty Face location separately and independently from the franchisor's business operations.
To ensure this separation is evident, Clean Your Dirty Face requires franchisees to place notices of independent ownership on all interior and exterior signage, forms, business cards, stationery, advertising, and other materials as the franchisor may require from time to time. This helps to avoid any confusion about the relationship between the franchisee's business and the Clean Your Dirty Face brand.
Furthermore, franchisees are prohibited from making any express or implied agreements, warranties, guarantees, or representations in the name of Clean Your Dirty Face. They also cannot incur any debt on behalf of Clean Your Dirty Face or represent their relationship as anything other than franchisor and franchisee. This reinforces the independent nature of the franchisee's business and protects Clean Your Dirty Face from potential liabilities.
