What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Face Foundrie's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the payment schedule for the Marketing Contribution can be altered at the discretion of Face Foundrie. Franchisees are obligated to pay 3% of Gross Sales monthly as a Marketing Contribution.
The standard payment timeline requires that the Marketing Contribution be submitted by the 5th day of the month, covering the Gross Sales from the previous month. However, Face Foundrie retains the authority to modify this payment schedule as it sees fit.
This flexibility allows Face Foundrie to adjust payment terms based on various factors, such as changes in market conditions or the financial needs of the Marketing Fund. While the standard payment is due by the 5th of each month, franchisees must remain aware that Face Foundrie can change this schedule, potentially requiring more frequent or earlier payments. Franchisees should maintain open communication with Face Foundrie to stay informed of any changes to the payment schedule and to ensure compliance with the franchise agreement.
