As of the FDD issuance date, who is the only approved supplier for the Hydrodog Initial Tools Package?

According to Hydrodog's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, as of the issuance date of the document, Hydrodog is the only approved supplier for the Initial Tools Package. Hydrodog also designates itself as an approved supplier of HydroDog Vehicles and subleases for HydroDog Vehicles.

This means that new Hydrodog franchisees are required to purchase their Initial Tools Package directly from Hydrodog. This requirement ensures that all franchisees start with the same standardized set of tools and equipment necessary for operating the business. Hydrodog retains the right to designate itself or other suppliers for additional products and services in the future, giving them control over the supply chain and potentially impacting costs and sourcing options for franchisees.

While Hydrodog is currently the only approved supplier for the Initial Tools Package, they also reserve the right to designate themselves as the only approved supplier for additional particular products and services in the future. This clause provides Hydrodog with the flexibility to manage its supply chain and potentially increase its revenue streams through direct sales to franchisees. Prospective franchisees should inquire about the typical contents, costs, and lifespan of the Initial Tools Package to fully understand this initial investment.
