What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Beggars Pizza's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the supplier agreement's term is directly linked to the Franchise Agreement. The supplier agreement becomes effective on the agreement date and remains in effect until the franchise agreement expires or is terminated. Specifically, the supplier agreement automatically terminates if the franchise agreement is terminated.
This means that as a Beggars Pizza franchisee, your supplier agreement with BEGCOM, LLC will last as long as your franchise agreement is active. If you renew your franchise agreement, the supplier agreement effectively renews as well. However, if your franchise agreement is terminated for any reason, your supplier agreement will also end.
Either party has the right to terminate the supplier agreement with thirty days prior written notice if a material default by the other party occurs. This interdependency underscores the importance of maintaining a healthy franchise relationship, as issues with the franchise agreement directly impact the supplier relationship and your ability to source products for your Beggars Pizza restaurant.
