What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Beehive Homes' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees are obligated to have each employee of their home execute the standard Non-Competition and Non-Disclosure Agreement before they start training or working, or otherwise accessing the home. The FDD specifies that a copy of this agreement must be delivered to Beehive Homes within one week of its execution or on the employee's first day of employment, whichever comes first.
The Beehive Homes FDD does not specify a particular format (e.g., electronic, paper) for delivering the Non-Competition and Non-Disclosure Agreement. It simply states that a copy of the agreement shall be delivered.
As the FDD does not specify the delivery format, a prospective franchisee should clarify with Beehive Homes the preferred or required method for submitting these agreements to ensure compliance with their procedures. This could involve asking whether electronic submissions are acceptable, if there's a specific online portal to use, or if physical copies are required to be mailed to the franchisor.
