What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Beehive Homes' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the franchisor will provide the franchisee with one standard exterior sign. This sign will bear the name "BEE HIVE HOMES®" and must conform to local requirements regarding size and style.
Additional signs may be purchased by the franchisee, but at their own expense. These additional signs must adhere to the specifications provided by Beehive Homes.
This arrangement is fairly typical in franchising, where the franchisor controls brand signage to ensure uniformity, but the franchisee often bears the cost of additional or optional signs. It is important for prospective franchisees to factor in the cost of these additional signs if they are desired for their location.
