Does this Rider grant an independent right to use the 7 Brew trademark or other commercial symbols?

According to the 2025 FDD, the Development Rights Rider to the Franchise Agreement for 7 Brew does not grant an independent right to use the 7 Brew trademark or other commercial symbols. The rider only grants potential development rights if the franchisee fully complies with its terms. The right to use 7 Brew's trademarks and commercial symbols is granted only under a franchise agreement signed directly with 7 Brew.

This means that while the Rider allows a franchisee to develop multiple 7 Brew stores within a specific territory, it does not give them the right to use the 7 Brew brand or logos independently of a fully executed franchise agreement. The franchisee's rights to use the 7 Brew trademarks are tied directly to the franchise agreement for each store they operate.

This distinction is important because it clarifies that the Development Rights Rider primarily concerns the right to expand within a territory, not the right to brand oneself as 7 Brew. The actual branding rights come with the individual franchise agreements for each 7 Brew store the franchisee opens. This is a fairly standard practice in franchising, as franchisors typically maintain tight control over their brand and trademarks.
