Does Marble Slab Creamery receive payment for obtaining or placing financing for franchisees?

Based on the 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the excerpts provided do not explicitly state whether Marble Slab Creamery receives payment for obtaining or placing financing for franchisees. Item 5 does state that "We do not offer financing for the Franchise Fee. Except for any special programs or periodic discounts we may offer or as otherwise describe".

However, Item 22 outlines various fees and financial obligations of the franchisee, such as late payment charges and reimbursements for the franchisor's costs related to lease reviews. While these clauses detail specific financial interactions between the franchisee and franchisor, they do not address fees related to financing assistance.

A prospective franchisee should directly ask Marble Slab Creamery about any fees or arrangements related to financing assistance to fully understand the potential costs and benefits. This information is crucial for making an informed investment decision.
