What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Floors To Go Franchise Disclosure Document, Floors To Go may provide franchisees with consultations under certain conditions. Specifically, upon a franchisee's request, Floors To Go may offer consultation regarding carpet quality and product mix. This suggests that franchisees can seek guidance from the franchisor in making informed decisions about the types of carpets to stock and how to create a balanced product selection for their showroom.
In addition to product-related consultations, Floors To Go may also assist franchisees in resolving problems with merchandise vendors or manufacturers participating in the Floors To Go system. This implies that if a franchisee encounters issues with suppliers approved by Floors To Go, they can turn to the franchisor for support in resolving these issues. This assistance could be valuable in maintaining smooth operations and ensuring a consistent supply of quality products.
Floors To Go will also provide advertising consulting and media planning services to franchisees or groups of members for a mutually agreed upon fee. This means that franchisees can get help with their advertising strategies and media planning, but they will have to pay an additional fee for these services. The exact fee will be determined through mutual agreement between Floors To Go and the franchisee, allowing for some flexibility depending on the scope and nature of the consulting services provided.
