What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Beyond Juicery Eatery's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Beyond Juicery Eatery may receive consideration from suppliers based on a franchisee's purchases of proprietary products. Specifically, franchisees are required to purchase proprietary products either directly from Beyond Juicery Eatery or from a designated supplier.
This arrangement means that Beyond Juicery Eatery can profit not only from direct sales of proprietary products to its franchisees but also from any incentives or payments it receives from the suppliers of those products. This creates a dual revenue stream for the franchisor related to these specific products.
For a prospective franchisee, this highlights the importance of understanding the pricing of proprietary products and the potential impact on their operating costs. While the FDD states that the franchisee will purchase proprietary products at a reasonable price, it is important to investigate and compare these prices with alternative products, if any, to ensure competitiveness and profitability. Furthermore, the franchisee should inquire about the specific arrangements Beyond Juicery Eatery has with its suppliers and how these arrangements might affect product quality, supply chain reliability, and overall costs.
