What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Belocal's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the distinguishing characteristics of the Belocal System include specifications, policies, and procedures for operations. These encompass the quality of products and services, sales, management, financial control procedures, customer service, training, assistance, and advertising and promotional programs.
Belocal emphasizes that these characteristics may be changed, improved, and further developed by the company over time. This allows Belocal to adapt to market changes and improve its franchise system.
Furthermore, the Belocal system includes systems for soliciting leads and managing client relationships with Hyport Digital, Belocal's digital marketing goods and services business. The Hyport Digital trademarks are included in the definition of "Marks," and Belocal offers franchisees the opportunity, but not the obligation, to solicit leads for and facilitate client relationships with Hyport Digital as part of their Franchised Business.
