What This Means (2025 FDD)
The 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document for 7 Brew does not specify where a copy of the delegation of authority must be filed. However, the document does state that 7 Brew has the right to delegate the performance of any portion or all of their obligations under the Franchise Agreement to third-party designees, whether they are affiliates, agents, or independent contractors.
While the FDD does not explicitly state where the delegation of authority document should be filed, it does mention that franchisees must send 7 Brew copies of all default notices and notices of the landlord's intent to terminate the lease or evict the tenant. These notices should be sent to Brew Culture Franchise, LLC at 2 North College Avenue, Fayetteville, Arkansas 72701, Attn: Legal Department. This suggests a general channel for legal and contractual communication.
A prospective franchisee should clarify with 7 Brew the specific procedures for documenting and filing any delegation of authority, including whether there is a specific office or department to which such documents should be submitted. Understanding these procedures is essential for ensuring compliance with the franchise agreement and maintaining clear communication with the franchisor.
