What are the conditions for a Bigfoot Forestry franchisee to offer optional goods or services?

According to the 2025 Bigfoot Forestry FDD, while franchisees must offer all required Bigfoot Forestry services, some services may be designated as optional, giving the franchisee the choice to offer them or not. However, offering these optional goods or services is conditional.

Specifically, a Bigfoot Forestry franchisee may need to complete additional training to properly provide the optional services. They might also be required to purchase additional equipment and tools to meet the standards for those services. Furthermore, franchisees may need to secure additional licenses or permits to legally offer the optional services in their area.

This means that while franchisees have some flexibility in choosing which services to offer, they must be prepared to invest further in training, equipment, and licenses if they decide to expand their service offerings beyond the mandatory services. This ensures that all Bigfoot Forestry services, whether mandatory or optional, meet the brand's standards and quality expectations.
