What This Means (2025 FDD)
I am unable to provide information regarding which agencies a prospective franchisee should contact if they receive unauthorized financial performance information. While the 2025 FDD includes a list of state agencies/agents for service of process under Exhibit K, it does not specify which agencies to contact regarding unauthorized financial performance representations. A prospective franchisee should ask the franchisor for clarification on which specific agencies or regulatory bodies they should report to if they encounter unauthorized financial performance information related to the Bambu franchise.
