What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Basecamp Fitness's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, by signing the Franchisee Questionnaire, a prospective franchisee is representing that they have responded truthfully, completely, and correctly to all the questions in the questionnaire. The document emphasizes that Basecamp Fitness relies on the accuracy of these answers. However, the document also states that the representations within the questionnaire do not act as a release, estoppel, or waiver of any liability incurred under applicable franchise law.
This questionnaire is not required for residents of California or for franchises located in California, and if completed by a California franchisee, it is considered void and unenforceable due to California public policy. Similarly, the questionnaire does not apply to franchisees in Hawaii, Maryland, or Washington, regardless of whether it is signed.
The questionnaire includes a series of questions designed to assess the franchisee's understanding of the franchise agreement, their eligibility to work in the United States or Canada, and their financial and legal background. It also covers topics such as potential conflicts of interest, prior business experience, and any representations made by the franchisor during the sales process. The questionnaire also asks for the dates on which the franchisee received copies of the Franchise Agreement and Area Development Agreement with all material blanks fully completed.
Prospective Basecamp Fitness franchisees should understand the importance of providing accurate and complete answers to the questionnaire, as Basecamp Fitness will rely on this information when deciding whether to award a franchise. Franchisees should also be aware of the specific exemptions for franchisees in California, Hawaii, Maryland and Washington.
