What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Marble Slab Creamery's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, remedial expenses are the reasonable expenses the franchisor incurs to correct a franchisee's operational deficiencies. These expenses are payable if Marble Slab Creamery identifies deficiencies during a site inspection and the franchisee fails to correct them within a reasonable time after receiving notice.
The cost for remedial expenses will not exceed $10,000 per deficiency. These expenses are due on demand, meaning Marble Slab Creamery can request immediate payment once the expenses are incurred.
This fee structure incentivizes franchisees to maintain operational standards and address any identified issues promptly. Failing to do so can result in the franchisee being responsible for Marble Slab Creamery's expenses to rectify the situation, up to the specified limit. This is a fairly standard practice in franchising, where franchisors need to ensure brand consistency and operational compliance across all locations.
