What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Baymont Inn Suites's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Baymont Inn Suites may provide your contact information to their Approved Suppliers. This means that as a franchisee, you may be contacted directly by these suppliers.
Approved Suppliers are those with whom Baymont Inn Suites and/or its affiliate WSSI (presumably Wyndham Supply Services, Inc.) have negotiated purchasing terms, including prices, volume discounts, and commissions. This arrangement is intended to support the purchasing efforts of franchisees and promote the overall interests of the Baymont Inn Suites system.
While Baymont Inn Suites may share your contact information, it's important to note that you can purchase products and services directly from these Approved Suppliers through their websites or more traditional means. This provides flexibility in how you engage with these suppliers. It is also important to note that you are not required to purchase from Approved Suppliers except for certain items such as those bearing the brand's marks, items related to health and safety, and certain technology systems.
