What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Beauty Bungalows's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, a franchisee must pay a relocation fee to relocate their franchise. The exact amount of this relocation fee is not specified in Item 12. However, the FDD states that relocation is contingent upon the franchisee being in compliance with the Franchise Agreement and/or the ADA, having paid all money owed to Beauty Bungalows and/or its affiliates, and ensuring the proposed new location meets Beauty Bungalows's site selection criteria as outlined in the Manual.
To relocate, a Beauty Bungalows franchisee must also meet the then-current site selection criteria, which Beauty Bungalows will provide. Franchisees are required to submit proposals for the new location within three months of signing the Franchise Agreement. Beauty Bungalows will then approve or disapprove the proposed site within 30 days of receiving notice from the franchisee.
Prospective franchisees should inquire about the specific amount of the relocation fee, as well as the current site selection criteria, to fully understand the costs and requirements associated with moving their Beauty Bungalows franchise to a new location. Franchisees can also request site selection services from Beauty Bungalows, for which they would need to pay a Site Selection Assistance Fee, as detailed in Items 5 and 7 of the FDD.
