What is the monthly minimum fee for a Kitchen Solvers franchise during months 7-12 of operation?

According to Kitchen Solvers' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees are required to pay a monthly minimum fee, which varies depending on how long the business has been open. For months 7-12 of operation, the monthly minimum fee is $300. This fee is part of the overall royalty structure, where franchisees pay the greater of either the monthly minimum fee or a percentage of their gross sales.

This minimum fee structure is common in franchising and ensures that Kitchen Solvers receives a baseline royalty payment, even if a franchisee's sales are low. It also incentivizes franchisees to increase their sales, as they will eventually pay a percentage of their gross sales if it exceeds the minimum fee threshold. The FDD also specifies that all fees are payable to Kitchen Solvers, are uniformly imposed, and are non-refundable, unless otherwise noted.

Prospective Kitchen Solvers franchisees should carefully consider this monthly minimum fee when projecting their potential earnings. They need to ensure that their business can generate enough revenue to cover this fee, along with other operating expenses and royalty payments. It's also important to note that the monthly minimum fee increases over time, rising to $600 during months 13-24 and $900 after 24 months, so franchisees should plan for these increases in their financial projections.
