The franchisor is Brew Culture Franchise, LLC ("we," "us," or "our"). "You" means the entity to which we grant franchises and development rights. Your owners must sign our "Guaranty and Assumption of Obligations" or "Owner's Undertaking of Non-Monetary Obligations" (depending on the ownership percentage). This means all or some of our Franchise Agreement's provisions (Exhibit A) also will apply to your owners.
We are a Wyoming limited liability company formed on February 21, 2021. Our principal business address is 2710 S. 48th Street, Springdale, Arkansas 72762.

What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 7 Brew Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees and their owners must sign several key documents. The franchise itself is governed by the Franchise Agreement, which is included as Exhibit A to the FDD. Franchisees who commit to multi-unit development also sign a Development Rights Rider to the Franchise Agreement, also referenced as "DRR," which is included as Exhibit B.
In addition to the main franchise agreements, individual owners of the franchise entity may be required to sign a "Guaranty and Assumption of Obligations" or an "Owner's Undertaking of Non-Monetary Obligations," depending on their ownership percentage. These documents ensure that the owners are also bound by certain provisions of the Franchise Agreement.
It is important for prospective franchisees to carefully review all these documents with legal counsel to fully understand their rights and obligations before signing.
