What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to B Bops's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the exact number of days of pre-opening assistance, which will be between three and five days, is determined by B Bops. During this time, B Bops will provide between one and four people to assist the franchisee at the franchise premises in preparation for the opening.
The franchisee or their manager is required to be present during the assistance period. The franchisee is responsible for reimbursing B Bops for the cost of round-trip airline tickets, if applicable, and hotel expenses for the B Bops personnel providing the assistance.
This type of pre-opening support is fairly standard in the franchise industry, as it helps ensure a consistent brand experience and operational efficiency from the outset. However, the franchisee should factor in the potential costs of travel and lodging for the B Bops team when budgeting for the launch of their franchise.
