While all fees are generally uniformly imposed, we previously provided a Royalty concession to certain franchisees and their affiliates committing to develop 10 or more 7 BREW Stores by increasing the Gross Sales level at which they must pay the higher percentage Royalty Fee.
We might in the future grant economic concessions to certain franchisees depending on the size of their proposed multiunit development and other business considerations.

What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to 7 Brew's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, 7 Brew might offer economic concessions to franchisees based on specific circumstances. These concessions are not guaranteed but are considered depending on the scale of the franchisee's proposed multi-unit development plans and other general business factors.
In the past, 7 Brew has provided royalty concessions to franchisees and their affiliates who committed to developing 10 or more 7 Brew stores. This concession involved increasing the gross sales level at which they were required to pay the higher percentage royalty fee. This indicates that 7 Brew is open to negotiating terms to incentivize larger-scale development.
For a prospective franchisee, this suggests that there may be opportunities to negotiate more favorable terms, particularly if they are planning to open multiple 7 Brew locations. It is important to discuss these possibilities with the franchisor and understand what specific criteria and commitments would be required to qualify for any economic concessions. The terms of any such concessions would likely be documented in the Franchise Agreement.
