What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Clean Your Dirty Face's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, a franchisee cannot relocate their business without prior approval from Clean Your Dirty Face. The FDD states that a franchisee "may not relocate your Business to a location other than the Premises without our approval."
If Clean Your Dirty Face does approve a relocation, the franchisee will be responsible for the costs associated with the relocation. This includes site selection, lease provisions, and a relocation fee. The relocation fee is $10,000, which covers the services Clean Your Dirty Face provides, such as reviewing and approving the new site and lease, and assisting with the design and construction of the new site.
However, Clean Your Dirty Face will waive the relocation fee if the relocation is due to circumstances outside of the franchisee's control, such as fire or casualty. This provides some protection for franchisees in the event of unforeseen events that force them to move their Clean Your Dirty Face location.
