Franchise disclosure document requirements. According to the Federal Trade Commission, there are 15 states that require franchisors to give an FDD to franchisees before any franchise agreement is signed. Thirteen of those states require that they are filed by a state agency for public record.
Why is FDD Important? The FDD lets the prospective franchisees analyze and decide if they are to make the purchase or not. This also provides an opportunity to know more about the franchisor and clear up some of the little known points about the business.
The Who Group (Items 1-4). The How Much Group (Items 5-9). The What Group (Items 10-18). The How it Works Group (Items 19-21). The Help Group (Items 22-23). ITEM 1: THE FRANCHISOR, AND ANY PARENTS, PREDECESSORS AND AFFILIATES. ITEM 3: LITIGATION. ITEM 5: INITIAL FEES.
Timing: Franchisors must provide the FDD to prospective franchisees at least fourteen days prior to them signing the franchise agreement, and the franchisee is entitled to receive the completed Franchise Agreement at least seven days prior to signing it.
Disclaimer: FDDs are public documents available at various state offices for free or close to free. These disclosure documents are posted for the sole purpose of assisting in research. The reader should contact the franchisor(s) directly to obtain the most current FDDs.
