What This Means (2025 FDD)

According to Bhc's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, when a franchisee intends to sell, transfer, or assign their franchise, assets, or controlling interest, the franchisee must notify Bhc. As part of this notification, the franchisee needs to include the proposed transferee's application for approval, which contains forms and financial disclosures typically used by Bhc when interviewing new franchisees.

If these forms are not readily available to the franchisee, the franchisee must request that Bhc deliver these forms via business courier. Bhc is then required to deliver these forms to the franchisee within 15 calendar days of the request. This ensures the franchisee can proceed with the transfer process in a timely manner.

This requirement ensures that Bhc provides the necessary documentation for franchise transfer in a structured timeframe, which is beneficial for franchisees looking to sell or transfer their business. It also allows Bhc to maintain control over who becomes a franchisee by ensuring the proper application and financial disclosures are completed.
