Where do I find a copy of the information statement?

Answer

The Information Statement is a standard document set out in annexure 2 to the Code. It is a generic statement designed to inform prospective franchisees of a number of key matters before they make the commitment to enter into a franchise agreement. It includes an explanation of what franchising is and what the franchising relationship involves, the risks of franchising, information on where to obtain more information and online education courses on franchising.

The timing for providing an Information Statement is within 7 days of the enquiry being made.
