What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Body20's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Body20 typically bears the cost of inspections at a franchisee's studio. However, the franchisee may be responsible for the costs in certain situations.
Specifically, if an inspection is required due to a franchisee's repeated or ongoing failure to comply with the franchise agreement, Body20 can charge the franchisee for the inspection. This charge can be up to 120% of Body20's and its affiliates' costs and expenses related to the inspection. These costs can include wages, travel, and living expenses for Body20's representatives.
This provision incentivizes Body20 franchisees to maintain compliance with the franchise agreement and operational standards. Failure to do so can result in the franchisee incurring additional expenses for inspections, on top of any costs associated with correcting the non-compliant behavior.
