Learn Which Franchises Can Make You Rich

Detailed Information on MOOYAH’s Initial Franchise Fee, Royalty Fee + 22 Other Fees (Items 5 and 6, 2022 FDD)

1.  Initial Franchise Fee:  $40,000

  • When you sign a Franchise Agreement, you must pay MOOYAH an initial franchise fee (“Initial Franchise Fee”). If you sign a single Franchise Agreement, the Initial Franchise Fee is $40,000.
  • The Initial Franchise Fee is uniform for all franchisees and is earned by MOOYAH when you sign the Franchise Agreement.
  • If you request a one-time extension of the Possession Deadline (as defined in Item 11), you must pay MOOYAH a non-refundable $1,000 extension fee as a condition to MOOYAH granting you an extension.
  • If MOOYAH elects to terminate the Franchise Agreement because you (or all of you, if more than one person signs the Franchise Agreement) fail to complete its initial training program to its satisfaction, it will refund ½ of the Initial Franchise Fee if you sign a confidentiality agreement and general release. Otherwise, the Initial Franchise Fee is not refundable.
  • If you sign an Area Development Agreement, you will pay a reduced Initial Franchise Fee of $25,000 for the 2nd, and each subsequent, franchise that you acquire pursuant to the Area Development Agreement.

2.  Development Fee:  the total number of Restaurants in the Minimum Performance Schedule (less the 1st one), multiplied by $25,000

  • If and when you sign an Area Development Agreement, you must pay MOOYAH a development fee (“Development Fee”) equal to the product of (1) the total number of Restaurants in the Minimum Performance Schedule (less the 1st one), multiplied by (2) $25,000.
  • While MOOYAH and you may agree to deviate from it, MOOYAH’s standard Area Development Agreement will require you to commit to acquiring 3 franchises, in which case the Development Fee will be $50,000.
  • You must sign the Franchise Agreement and pay the Initial Franchise Fee for the first franchise you agree to acquire at the same time you sign the Area Development Agreement and pay the Development Fee.
  • As you sign the 2nd and each subsequent Franchise Agreement pursuant to the Area Development Agreement, MOOYAH credits the Development Fee, in $25,000 increments, toward the Initial Franchise Fee due under each such Franchise Agreement.
  • The Development Fee is uniformly applied to persons entering into an Area Development Agreement, is fully earned by MOOYAH on your execution of the Area Development Agreement, and is non-refundable.

3.  Royalty Fee:  6% of Gross Sales
