What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Face Foundrie's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, if a franchisee fails to modify the exterior and interior décor of the Facial Bar, the premises, and vehicles as required by Face Foundrie to eliminate its identification as a Face Foundrie Facial Bar after termination, Face Foundrie has the right to take action to modify the exterior and interior décor of the Facial Bar and the premises.
In this case, Face Foundrie will charge the franchisee for the cost of such action. The franchisee is then required to immediately pay Face Foundrie for the cost of any action taken by Face Foundrie to modify the exterior and interior décor of the Facial Bar and the premises.
This clause ensures that after a franchise agreement ends, the location no longer appears to be associated with the Face Foundrie brand, protecting Face Foundrie's brand identity and preventing potential confusion among customers. It is important for prospective franchisees to understand this financial responsibility upon termination and to factor potential modification costs into their business planning.
