For Beggars Pizza, what is the obligation of the Customer to have SpeedLine approved as a supplier?

According to the 2025 Beggars Pizza Franchise Disclosure Document, the customer's obligation to have SpeedLine approved as a supplier is dependent on whether the Licensor requires the customer to purchase equipment and software that meets the Licensor's required specifications and standards from an approved supplier. If such a requirement exists, the customer is responsible for ensuring that the equipment and software described in the Quote meet the required specifications and standards. Additionally, the customer is responsible for having SpeedLine approved as a supplier of the equipment and software described in the Quote.

In simpler terms, if Beggars Pizza mandates that franchisees buy specific equipment and software from approved suppliers, the franchisee must verify that the SpeedLine equipment and software aligns with Beggars Pizza's standards. Furthermore, the franchisee is responsible for ensuring that SpeedLine is an approved supplier for Beggars Pizza. This implies that the franchisee needs to take proactive steps to confirm SpeedLine's compliance and approval status with Beggars Pizza.

This requirement ensures that all franchisees use compatible and standardized systems, maintaining consistency across all Beggars Pizza locations. It also protects the Beggars Pizza brand by ensuring that the technology used meets certain quality and performance standards. Franchisees should confirm with Beggars Pizza the specific equipment and software requirements and the list of approved suppliers to ensure compliance.
