What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Face Foundrie's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the effective date for the states of Illinois, Minnesota, New York, and Virginia are not listed. Instead, the FDD indicates that you must consult a separate FDD for each of those states to determine the effective date.
This means that the standard Face Foundrie FDD does not contain the necessary information to determine when the franchise offering became effective in those specific states. The effective date is important because it marks the point in time when Face Foundrie was legally permitted to begin offering and selling franchises in that state.
As a prospective franchisee, it is crucial to review these separate FDDs to understand the specific regulations and requirements in those states. This may involve additional legal or administrative steps before you can proceed with purchasing a Face Foundrie franchise in Illinois, Minnesota, New York, or Virginia. Contacting Face Foundrie's franchise development team directly would be a prudent step to acquire these state-specific FDDs and clarify any questions regarding their implications.
