According to B Bops's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, if the franchise premises is damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, the franchisee must begin repairs within sixty (60) days of the event. The franchisee is expected to diligently pursue these repairs to restore the premises to its original condition.
However, B Bops has the right to direct that the restoration proceed according to the company's current specifications if the premises can be restored to these specifications without significant additional cost to the franchisee.
