What does Better Blend issue when a site is accepted?

According to Better Blend's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, when a potential site is accepted, Better Blend will issue a Location Acceptance Letter. This letter will be in the form of Attachment 2 to the Franchise Agreement.

Prior to this, the prospective franchisee is responsible for finding a potential site and submitting it to Better Blend for approval, along with all required information and documentation. Better Blend does not select the site for the franchisee. The FDD specifies that if the site is not already known and approved when the franchise agreement is signed, the area in which the franchisee must select a site will be specified in the franchise agreement.

Better Blend considers several factors when approving sites, including the general location and neighborhood, competition, trade area demographics, traffic patterns, parking, size, physical characteristics of existing buildings, and lease terms. The franchisor has a 30-day window to approve or disapprove a proposed site after receiving all necessary documents and information from the franchisee. If the franchisee and Better Blend cannot agree on a site, and unless an extension is agreed upon, the franchisee may be in default of the franchise agreement and Better Blend may terminate the agreement.
