What This Means (2025 FDD)

According to Bee Organized's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the franchise agreement outlines a Minimum Monthly Royalty Fee Requirement, which varies based on the number of territories and the years in operation. The royalty fees are structured to increase over time, with different tiers based on the number of territories a franchisee operates.

Specifically, the Minimum Monthly Royalty Fee Requirement is not imposed during the initial six-month period following the opening date of the Bee Organized Business. For a single territory, the monthly royalty fees start at $350 in the second year, increasing to $675 in the third year, $1,000 in the fourth year, $1,335 in the fifth year, $1,600 in the sixth year, and reaching $2,000 in years 7 to 10, and $2,300 thereafter. If a franchisee operates in multiple territories, the Minimum Monthly Royalty Fee Requirement is calculated on a per-territory basis. For example, a franchisee operating in three territories during their second year would pay $800 per territory per month.

During any renewal term, the Minimum Monthly Royalty Fee Requirement will not be less than what was applicable during years 7 to 10. Bee Organized retains the right to increase this fee, but the increase cannot exceed 10% per annum within each calendar month of any renewal term. The Royalty Fee is calculated monthly and due on the 5th of each month for the preceding month, payable via ACH, electronic funds transfer, or as otherwise designated by Bee Organized.

In addition to the Minimum Monthly Royalty Fee, if any federal, state, or local tax (other than income tax) is imposed on the Royalty Fee that Bee Organized cannot directly offset against its own tax obligations, the franchisee must compensate Bee Organized to ensure the net amount received by Bee Organized remains consistent with the agreement. Bee Organized also has the right to charge and collect sales or other taxes on the Royalty Fees if imposed by a state.
