Under what circumstances might Better Blend approve relocation of a franchisee's business?

According to Better Blend's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees do not have a guaranteed right to relocate their business. Better Blend has no obligation to approve any relocation request. However, Better Blend's policy is to consider relocation requests on a case-by-case basis.

Better Blend will consider factors such as changes in the demographics of the area, the profitability of the current business location, or if the franchisee loses access to their current premises due to circumstances beyond their control. This means that if a franchisee's business is struggling due to a shift in the local population or if their building is damaged by a natural disaster, Better Blend may be willing to consider allowing them to move to a new location.

It is important to note that even if one of these circumstances exists, Better Blend is not obligated to approve the relocation. The decision is made on a case-by-case basis, and Better Blend will likely consider other factors as well, such as the availability of suitable locations and the potential impact on other franchisees in the area. Prospective franchisees should carefully consider the risks associated with being tied to a specific location before investing in a Better Blend franchise.
