Is the Body20 questionnaire considered part of the Body20 Franchise Agreement?

According to Body20's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the Compliance Questionnaire is not considered part of the Franchise Agreement in certain states. Specifically, the questionnaire does not apply if the franchise is subject to state franchise disclosure laws in California, Hawaii, Illinois, Indiana, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, North Dakota, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Virginia, Washington, or Wisconsin.

This means that if a prospective Body20 franchisee is located in or will operate their franchise in one of the listed states, they are not required to complete the questionnaire. Furthermore, any acknowledgement signed related to the franchise cannot waive claims under state franchise law or disclaim reliance on statements made by Body20 or its representatives.

For franchisees outside of these specified states, the questionnaire serves to confirm their understanding of the franchise terms and that no unauthorized promises have been made. It is important for prospective franchisees to understand whether the questionnaire applies to them based on their location and to seek legal counsel if needed.
