What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to B Bops's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, a Developer agrees to develop, own, operate, maintain, and promote each B Bops Restaurant Unit, referred to as a "Unit", in accordance with the terms and conditions contained in the standard form of franchise agreement. This agreement is utilized by B Bops to grant B Bops Restaurant franchises at the time of development of each Unit, and is referred to as a "Unit Franchise Agreement". The Developer will execute this agreement as specified in Section 6 of the Development Agreement.
Upon approval of a proposed site, B Bops grants the Developer the right and license to own and operate a B Bops Restaurant at that site, provided the Developer complies with the terms of the Development Agreement and all Unit Franchise Agreements between the parties. The Unit Franchise Agreement, which is the standard form used by B Bops at the time of development, will be forwarded to the Developer for execution. The Developer must execute and return the Unit Franchise Agreement, along with the initial franchise fee (as specified in Appendix III), within twenty (20) days of receipt, following B Bops's instructions. Failure to do so will render B Bops's site approval null and void.
Once B Bops approves a site, the Developer must take the necessary steps to acquire the site, either by purchase, lease, or sublease, and secure the rights to construct and operate a Unit on the site. The Developer is expected to commence construction of the Unit as soon as practicable, following the terms of the Unit Franchise Agreement. However, the Development Schedule outlined in the Development Agreement supersedes any conflicting time periods for construction and opening of the Unit specified in the Unit Franchise Agreement. The terms and conditions of the Unit Franchise Agreement govern the franchise relationship for each Unit, unless they conflict with the Development Agreement, in which case the Development Agreement prevails. Each Unit Franchise Agreement remains in effect even after the Development Agreement expires or terminates.
