What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Beverly Anns Cookie Franchise Disclosure Document, the Mystery Shopper Fee is $1,000 per occurrence. This fee is charged if Beverly Ann's Cookie sends a mystery shopper to evaluate the franchise location and the results are unsatisfactory.
Beverly Ann's Cookie may first require the franchisee to conduct a self-shop by sending photos of their GRM/GRT or any Additional Equipment. If the self-shop results are unsatisfactory or the franchisee does not participate, Beverly Ann's Cookie may then send a third-party mystery shopper. If the third-party mystery shopper's results are also unsatisfactory, Beverly Ann's Cookie will conduct its own mystery shop of the franchise.
In addition to the $1,000 fee to cover travel and expenses, the franchisee may also be subject to non-compliance fees if the mystery shop results are unsatisfactory. This fee is payable on demand, meaning Beverly Ann's Cookie can request immediate payment.
