and in the manner we specify.
ITEM 12 TERRITORY
Franchise Agreement: Your Franchise Agreement will specify the site or address that will be the accepted location for your Restaurant (the "Accepted Location"). Your Franchise Agreement may also specify your territory (the "Designated Territory"). The size and scope of the Designated Territory will be contained in the Franchise Agreement and will be determined based on two criteria: (1) whether the location is in an urban or suburban setting, and (2) how close in proximity it is to an existing bb.q Chicken Franchised Business. An urban area generally consists of contiguous territory having a density of at least 1,000 persons per square mile. A suburban area typically surrounds a major city and is typically made up of single-family detached residences with more green space and a lower population density than an urban area. The sources we use to obtain
population data include the U.S. Census Bureau. If your Franchised Business will be located in a suburban area, your Designated Territory will include a minimum of 10,000 people. If your Franchised Business will be located in an urban area, your Designated Territory will include a minimum of 5,000 people. No new franchised outlets may be established within a half-mile radius of an established bb.q Chicken Franchised Business. If you do not yet have a location at the signing of the Franchise Agreement, you will receive a non-exclusive site search area listed in Attachment 1 of the Franchise Agreement.

What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Bb.Q Chicken's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the specific location for a Bb.Q Chicken restaurant, referred to as the "Accepted Location," is detailed within the Franchise Agreement. The Franchise Agreement will specify the exact site or address that will serve as the Accepted Location for the restaurant. The Franchise Agreement may also specify a Designated Territory.
For prospective franchisees, this means that the physical address of their Bb.Q Chicken restaurant will be formally documented in the Franchise Agreement, providing a clear understanding of the approved location. If a franchisee does not have a location at the time of signing the Franchise Agreement, they will receive a non-exclusive site search area listed in Attachment 1 of the Franchise Agreement.
It is important to note that Bb.Q Chicken does not grant exclusive territories, and franchisees may face competition from other franchisees, company-owned outlets, or other distribution channels. The size and scope of the Designated Territory will be contained in the Franchise Agreement and will be determined based on two criteria: (1) whether the location is in an urban or suburban setting, and (2) how close in proximity it is to an existing bb.q Chicken Franchised Business.
