What must the Master Franchisee send to the Franchisor before the opening of an approved Bhc Restaurant?

According to Bhc's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, before opening an approved Bhc Restaurant, the Master Franchisee must send executed copies of each Subfranchise Agreement and any related Other Agreements to the Franchisor for their records. These Other Agreements could include an area development agreement or lease addendum.

This requirement ensures that Bhc maintains oversight and control over its brand and franchise network. By reviewing these agreements, Bhc can verify that the terms and conditions are consistent with the Master Franchise Agreement and any standards prescribed by Bhc. This helps to protect the brand's reputation and ensure consistency across all franchise locations.

It is also important to note that the Master Franchisee must first obtain Bhc's approval of the form Subfranchise Agreement or Other Agreement before entering into any agreements with a prospective subfranchisee. Furthermore, any modifications to the approved form documents also require Bhc's prior written approval. This highlights the importance of maintaining open communication with Bhc and adhering to their established procedures.
