What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Dermani Medspa's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees may incur a Supplier Testing fee. Currently, this fee is $500, plus Dermani Medspa's costs. This fee is charged if a franchisee proposes a new supplier of products or services, and Dermani Medspa needs to inspect the supplier or test the supplier's products. The fee covers Dermani Medspa's costs in conducting these inspections or tests.
Dermani Medspa may increase the Supplier Testing fee, but it will not exceed $1,000 per request, plus the company's out-of-pocket costs and expenses. This fee is due upon demand, if incurred.
This means that if a Dermani Medspa franchisee wants to use a supplier that is not already approved by the franchisor, they may have to pay this fee to ensure that the new supplier meets Dermani Medspa's standards. This protects the brand's quality and consistency but also adds a potential cost for franchisees who want to explore alternative suppliers.
