Specifically, the document states that Clean Your Dirty Face "ha[s] the right to restrict your sources of goods and services, as provided in various sections of this Agreement, including Section 8.D below".

This provision is common in franchising, allowing Clean Your Dirty Face to maintain quality control and brand consistency across all franchise locations. By designating approved suppliers, Clean Your Dirty Face can ensure that franchisees use products and services that meet the brand's standards.

Prospective franchisees should carefully review Section 8.D of the Franchise Agreement, as referenced in Item 22, to fully understand the extent of these restrictions. Understanding which goods and services are subject to these restrictions, and the process for getting new suppliers approved, is crucial for assessing the financial implications and operational flexibility of the franchise.
