What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to B Bops's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, B Bops provides franchisees with construction plans and specifications for the franchise premises. However, the franchisee is responsible for the expense of transforming these plans into site-specific plans that comply with all applicable codes, regulations, ordinances, lease, or deed requirements.
These plans and specifications remain the exclusive property of B Bops and must be returned after construction is completed. Any modifications to the plans require B Bops's consent, and the person making the modifications must assign their rights to the modified plans to B Bops.
B Bops also undertakes on-site reviews to approve the franchisee's proposed site and determine whether indoor seating will be required. However, B Bops does not warrant that the approved site will be successful. Franchisees must secure a site approved by B Bops at their own expense.
