What This Means (2025 FDD)

According to Bee Organized's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Bee Organized has the authority to revoke approval of a previously approved supplier if their standards fall below Bee Organized's designated standards. Bee Organized will provide written notification to the franchisee if an approval is revoked.

This means that as a franchisee, you are required to purchase or lease certain goods and services from approved or designated suppliers that meet Bee Organized's standards. These standards and the list of approved suppliers are detailed in the Manuals, which Bee Organized may modify. Changes to specifications or approved suppliers will be communicated through various means, including written or electronic correspondence and updates to the Manuals.

This policy ensures that all Bee Organized businesses maintain consistent quality and service standards. However, it also means franchisees must stay informed of any changes to approved suppliers and be prepared to switch suppliers if Bee Organized revokes approval of a previously accepted source. This could potentially impact a franchisee's existing relationships with suppliers and may require them to find new sources for goods and services on short notice.
