What This Means (2024 FDD)

According to Crab N Spice's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, Crab N Spice is the only approved supplier for branded apparel. Franchisees are required to purchase Crab N Spice Seasoning, Lemon Garlic Seasoning, and branded apparel directly from Crab N Spice.

This requirement means that franchisees do not have the option to source branded apparel from other vendors. This ensures brand consistency across all franchise locations, but it also means franchisees are subject to Crab N Spice's pricing and availability for these items.

While franchisees can request approval for alternative suppliers for other products, this option does not extend to branded apparel, Crab N Spice Seasoning, and Lemon Garlic Seasoning. Prospective franchisees should consider the potential costs and limitations associated with this exclusive supplier arrangement when evaluating the Crab N Spice franchise opportunity.
