Besides Phoenix, Arizona, is Best Western allowed to establish other meeting places and offices?

According to Best Western's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, while the principal meeting place for the corporation is in Phoenix, Arizona, Best Western has the authority to establish other meeting places and offices both within and outside the state of Arizona. This indicates that Best Western isn't restricted to Phoenix for its operational and administrative functions and can expand its physical presence as needed.

For a prospective franchisee, this flexibility in location suggests that Best Western has the potential to adapt its corporate structure and support systems to better serve its members across different regions. It also implies that franchisees might have opportunities to interact with Best Western representatives at various locations, potentially increasing accessibility and support.

However, the FDD does not specify where these other meeting places or offices might be located or the criteria for establishing them. A prospective franchisee should inquire with Best Western about their plans for future expansion of offices and meeting places and how these locations might benefit franchisees in their specific region.
