What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Clean Your Dirty Face's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, a franchisee who wishes to transfer their franchise must pay a transfer fee of $25,000 to the franchisor. This fee is one of several conditions that must be met for the franchisor to approve the transfer.
In addition to the transfer fee, the franchisee must ensure that all monetary obligations to Clean Your Dirty Face are paid and that they are not in default of any provisions of the Franchise Agreement, the lease of the business premises, or any other agreement with the franchisor. The new franchise owner (and its owners and affiliates) must also not be involved in a Competitive Business. The transferee must complete the Training Program, and the lease must be permitted to be transferred.
Furthermore, either the franchisee or the transferee must sign Clean Your Dirty Face's then-current Franchise Agreement and other documents, which may differ materially from the original agreement. The franchisee (and their owners) must sign a general release and guaranty. Clean Your Dirty Face must also determine that the financial terms of the transfer will not burden the CYDF Facial Bar or jeopardize their rights. The franchisee must subordinate amounts due to them and correct any existing deficiencies in their CYDF Facial Bar, or the transferee must agree to upgrade, remodel, and refurbish the location, potentially requiring them to escrow an amount approved by the franchisor. Finally, the franchisee must de-identify the location and comply with non-compete obligations.
