If a Bhc franchisee seeks financing, will Bhc provide any guarantees?

According to the 2025 Bhc Franchise Disclosure Document, Bhc does not offer direct or indirect financing to franchisees for any items. The FDD also states that Bhc does not offer any guarantees regarding a franchisee's business success.

This means that prospective Bhc franchisees must secure their own financing through third-party sources without any financial backing or guarantees from Bhc. Franchisees should carefully consider this when planning their initial investment and ongoing operational costs. It is important for potential franchisees to have a solid financial plan and explore all available financing options.

This is a fairly standard practice in the franchise industry, as most franchisors do not provide direct financing or guarantees. Franchisees are typically responsible for securing their own funding through banks, credit unions, or other lending institutions. However, Bhc may be able to provide a list of preferred lenders or offer guidance on preparing a loan application. It is important to discuss financing options with Bhc during the due diligence process.
