What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Coffee News Franchise Disclosure Document, the adjustment of weekly fees is referenced in Item 23, within the table of contents. However, the specific details regarding when and how these fees can be adjusted are not provided in the excerpts.
While the table of contents mentions 'Adjustment of Weekly Fees' on page 3, the provided excerpts do not include the actual content of that section. This means the circumstances under which Coffee News may change the weekly fees paid by franchisees are not detailed here.
A prospective Coffee News franchisee should ask the franchisor for a complete copy of Item 23 and carefully review the section on 'Adjustment of Weekly Fees' to understand their obligations and potential changes to their weekly financial commitments. It would also be prudent to inquire about the historical frequency and magnitude of any fee adjustments to better assess the financial predictability of the franchise.
