What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Dryject FDD, after Dryject completes its pre-opening obligations, it may ask the franchisee to sign a Confirmation of Performance, verifying that Dryject has fulfilled these obligations. If the franchisee does not believe that Dryject has performed all of its pre-opening obligations, the franchisee must provide written notice to Dryject within three business days, specifically describing the unfulfilled obligations.
Dryject is then required to complete these obligations within three business days after receiving the franchisee's notice. Once Dryject completes these remaining obligations, the franchisee is then required to sign and deliver the Confirmation of Performance. The term "pre-opening obligations" refers to the duties Dryject must fulfill before the franchise begins operations.
This process ensures that franchisees have a formal way to document and address any shortcomings in Dryject's initial support and setup. By requiring written notice of deficiencies and a subsequent confirmation of completion, Dryject establishes a system for accountability and verification, which is a common practice in franchising to ensure both parties are aligned before the business launches.
