Are cleaning supplies included in the opening inventory costs for a Bhc Restaurant?

According to Bhc's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the opening inventory costs for a Bhc restaurant include cleaning supplies. The FDD specifies that the opening inventory includes several categories of items necessary to begin operations.

Specifically, the opening inventory encompasses food and beverage products, paper products, cleaning supplies, and promotional materials. This means that a portion of the initial investment allocated to 'Opening Inventory' will be used to purchase the necessary cleaning supplies to maintain the restaurant.

Prospective franchisees should consider the cost of these cleaning supplies when budgeting for their initial investment. While the FDD lists cleaning supplies as part of the opening inventory, it does not provide a specific breakdown of the estimated cost for these supplies. Therefore, franchisees should inquire with Bhc about typical costs for cleaning supplies to better understand the financial commitment.
