What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to Deka Lash's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees are required to have the site laid out by Deka Lash's approved furniture supplier. The franchisee must submit the layout to Deka Lash for approval. Deka Lash will typically approve or disapprove the proposed layout within 14 days of submission.
Once Deka Lash approves the layout, the franchisee is responsible for remodeling the premises and installing the furniture, fixtures, and equipment according to the approved layout. This ensures that each Deka Lash studio maintains a consistent brand aesthetic and functional design.
These requirements help Deka Lash maintain uniformity across all franchise locations, which is a common practice in franchising. By mandating the use of an approved supplier and requiring franchisor approval, Deka Lash aims to control the quality and appearance of each studio, which can impact customer experience and brand perception.
