What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Beggars Pizza's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the franchisor offers site selection assistance through site selection guidelines and consultation that they deem advisable. Beggars Pizza also provides on-site evaluation as part of the site approval request. However, the on-site evaluation will not be provided until the franchisor receives the required information and materials.
Beggars Pizza will conduct up to two on-site evaluations at their own expense. For any additional on-site evaluations needed, the franchisee is responsible for reimbursing Beggars Pizza for all related expenses, including travel, lodging, and meals.
Beggars Pizza's approval of a site indicates only that they believe the site meets the minimum criteria they have established for their own purposes at the time of evaluation. The franchisor is not responsible if a site approved by the franchisee fails to meet the franchisee's expectations regarding revenue or operational criteria. The franchisee is responsible for their own independent investigation of the site's suitability.
