In Minnesota, how much time does a Bambu franchisee have to cure a termination notice?

According to Bambu's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Minnesota franchisees are typically given 90 days' notice of termination, with 60 days to cure the default. This is due to Minnesota state law (Minn. Stat. Sec. 80C.14 Subd. 3, 4 and 5), which provides specific termination and nonrenewal rights to franchisees. The FDD states that this law requires that franchisees receive this notice period except in certain specified cases. Additionally, Minnesota law requires a franchisee be given 180 days' notice for nonrenewal of the franchise agreement.

This addendum ensures that Bambu franchisees in Minnesota receive the protections mandated by Minnesota's franchise laws, which may be more favorable than the standard terms in Bambu's franchise agreement. Prospective franchisees should be aware of these rights and understand the circumstances under which they apply.

It is important for potential Bambu franchisees in Minnesota to consult with a legal professional to fully understand their rights and obligations under both the franchise agreement and Minnesota state law. This will help ensure they are prepared for any potential termination or non-renewal scenarios.
