What This Means (2025 FDD)

According to Best Brains' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the initial term of the franchise agreement is five years. If a franchisee meets certain conditions, they have the option to renew their franchise rights for an additional term of five years.

To renew the Best Brains franchise, the franchisee must provide written notice of their intent to renew at least six months, but no more than twelve months, before the current agreement expires. The franchisee must have substantially complied with all the provisions of the franchise agreement and any other agreements with Best Brains or its affiliates throughout the entire term.

Additionally, the franchisee must execute the then-current form of franchise agreement and any related ancillary agreements. They are also required to refurbish and remodel the franchise location to meet the current standards and specifications. Finally, the franchisee must execute releases of any claims against Best Brains and its affiliates. It is important to note that the terms of the franchise agreement and ancillary agreements at the time of renewal may differ significantly from the original agreement. A renewal fee, as specified in Section 2.G, is also required.
