What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to B Bops' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, B Bops has the right to inspect a franchise location to ensure the franchisee's operations comply with the standards and policies outlined in the Operations Manual and the franchise agreement. These inspections can occur during business hours without prior notice. The franchisee must cooperate with B Bops' representatives during these inspections and provide any requested assistance.
During the inspection, B Bops is entitled to interview the franchisee's employees or customers. If any noncompliance is found, the franchisee must correct it within ten days of the inspection date, although B Bops can extend this period at its discretion. However, even if the franchisee remedies each instance of noncompliance, continuous noncompliance with B Bops' standards and policies can be grounds for terminating the franchise agreement.
B Bops also outlines that if a franchisee fails to maintain the premises to B Bops' standards for cleanliness, condition, and appearance, B Bops will notify the franchisee of the deficiencies and demand corrective action. If the franchisee does not correct the issues within ten days or begin a program to correct them, B Bops can enter the premises to make the necessary repairs and refurbishments at the franchisee's expense. The franchisee must then pay B Bops for all reasonable expenses incurred, plus interest.
