What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Cream's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the Décor Package estimate covers standard interior and exterior décor, including shipping. However, franchisees are required to purchase certain décor items directly from Cream's parent company and the remainder of the décor package from approved vendors before installation.
The estimated initial investment table shows that the Décor Package has an estimated cost between $2,000 and $10,000. This amount is payable to approved third-party suppliers and is due as arranged.
Prospective franchisees should confirm with Cream a comprehensive list of what is included in the Décor Package, which items must be purchased from the parent company versus approved vendors, and a detailed breakdown of all potential costs to budget accurately. Understanding the specifics of the décor requirements and vendor options is crucial for managing the initial investment and maintaining brand consistency.
