What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Beyond Juicery Eatery Franchise Disclosure Document, after the termination or expiration of the Franchise Agreement, a franchisee must cease operating their business under the agreement. Furthermore, the franchisee is prohibited from directly or indirectly representing to the public that they are a present or former developer of Beyond Juicery Eatery.
This provision ensures that terminated or expired franchisees do not mislead the public into believing they are still affiliated with the Beyond Juicery Eatery brand. This protects the brand's reputation and prevents potential confusion among customers.
In addition to ceasing operations and refraining from misrepresentation, the franchisee must also take necessary actions to cancel or assign any assumed name registrations containing the Beyond Juicery Eatery name or trademarks back to the franchisor. This includes providing satisfactory evidence of compliance within 30 days of termination or expiration. This requirement further solidifies the separation between the franchisee and the Beyond Juicery Eatery brand, ensuring that all branding elements are returned to the franchisor's control.
