What This Means (2025 FDD)

According to Big O Tires' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Big O Tires will provide franchisees with recommended prices for Big O brand tires and other brands of tires exclusive to Big O. However, franchisees are not required to sell at any particular price if such a requirement would be unlawful.

Big O Tires also offers periodic recommended retail pricing in a franchisee's general market territory, focusing on price-competitive, regional retailers. This information is provided in an electronic format that allows franchisees to update their pricing files in the BOT POS System. Franchisees also have the ability to change this retail pricing at their discretion.

This means that while Big O Tires offers pricing guidance, franchisees have the flexibility to set their own prices based on local market conditions and business strategies, ensuring compliance with any applicable laws.
