What is the deadline for a Bhc franchisee to provide a report itemizing expenditures on the grand opening advertising and promotion?

According to Bhc's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, a franchisee must submit a report itemizing expenditures on grand opening advertising and promotion to Bhc no later than 75 days after the restaurant's opening date. This report must detail how the franchisee spent the required $10,000 to $13,000 on the initial opening advertising and promotion event within the first 60 days after opening.

This requirement ensures that Bhc franchisees adhere to the brand's marketing standards and properly invest in promoting their new location. By providing a detailed report, the franchisee demonstrates compliance with the franchise agreement and allows Bhc to monitor the effectiveness of grand opening marketing strategies.

Failure to meet the initial opening advertising and promotion spending requirement will result in the franchisee being required to add the shortage toward the Marketing and Promotion Fee. This incentivizes franchisees to prioritize and properly execute their grand opening marketing plans as outlined by Bhc.
