What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Beyond Juicery Eatery's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the franchise agreement cannot be modified orally. The FDD states that the agreement, along with the Franchise Agreement and any addendums, contains all the agreed-upon terms and conditions between the parties.
Beyond Juicery Eatery explicitly states that no promises or representations have been made outside of what is written in the agreement. This protects both the franchisor and the franchisee by ensuring that all obligations and agreements are documented and legally enforceable.
