What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Bambu's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Bambu has the right to delegate its obligations under the franchise agreement. Specifically, Bambu can delegate the performance of any or all of its duties to third parties, including agents or independent contractors.
This means that a franchisee may not always be dealing directly with Bambu for certain services or obligations outlined in the franchise agreement. Instead, Bambu can contract with other companies or individuals to fulfill these responsibilities.
As a prospective franchisee, it is important to understand which specific obligations Bambu might delegate and to whom. This understanding will help in assessing the quality and reliability of the services provided, as the franchisee will need to work with these third parties. It would be prudent to ask Bambu for a list of services they typically delegate and the criteria they use for selecting these third-party providers.
