What This Means (2025 FDD)

According to Big Apple Bagels' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, on-site consumption is not always available at a Big Apple Bagels Satellite Store. While a Big Apple Bagels Production Store includes on-site consumption, a Satellite Store may or may not have this capacity.

Specifically, a Big Apple Bagels Production Store has the capacity for the production, baking, retail and wholesale distribution, and on-site consumption of bagels and muffins, and the production, retail distribution and on-site consumption of cream cheese spreads, breakfast and lunch sandwiches, coffee beverages, and soft drinks. In contrast, a Big Apple Bagels Satellite Store has the capacity for baking, retail and wholesale distribution of bagels and muffins, and the production and retail distribution of cream cheese spreads, breakfast and lunch sandwiches, coffee beverages, and soft drinks.

This difference in capabilities between the two types of stores is important for prospective franchisees to consider. The availability of on-site consumption can significantly impact the store's potential revenue and customer base. A franchisee should carefully evaluate the location and market demand to determine whether a Satellite Store with or without on-site consumption is the best option. Franchisees should discuss with Big Apple Bagels the criteria and factors that go into deciding whether a specific Satellite Store location should include on-site consumption.
