What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to B Bops's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, if a franchisee fails to maintain the cleanliness, condition, and appearance of the franchise premises according to B Bops's standards, the company will notify the franchisee of the deficiencies and demand corrective action. The franchisee has ten days to correct the deficiencies or implement a program to correct them.
If the franchisee fails to take action within the specified timeframe, B Bops has the right, but not the obligation, to enter the franchise premises and make the necessary repairs, refurbishing, or redecorating to bring the premises into compliance with their standards. This entry will not create liability for trespass or other torts.
The franchisee is responsible for paying all reasonable expenses incurred by B Bops in correcting the deficiencies, along with interest at the rate specified in Section 9(E) from the date of payment by B Bops. This means the franchisee could face significant costs if they do not maintain the cleanliness and appearance of their B Bops restaurant, as B Bops can take corrective action at the franchisee's expense.
