What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to the 2024 Deck Medic Franchise Disclosure Document, information regarding system supplies can be found under the definition of "System Supplies" in Item 23. The FDD defines "System Supplies" as the equipment and supplies that Deck Medic designates as required for use in connection with a franchisee's Deck Medic business and the approved services and products.
System Supplies include both System branded, non-branded, and third-party branded equipment and supplies. These are designated by Deck Medic for the day-to-day operations of the franchisee's business. Examples of system supplies include customer vouchers, installation kits, and uniforms. The FDD specifies that Deck Medic may modify and supplement the required system supplies from time to time based on their reasonable business judgment.
The FDD also states in Article 7.A that franchisees must exclusively purchase and use the System Supplies, maintain a complete and updated inventory of them, and maintain, update, replenish, and replace their System Supplies. This highlights the importance of adhering to Deck Medic's standards and ensuring that franchisees have the necessary resources to operate their businesses effectively.
