What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Body Brain Center's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the franchisee is responsible for finding a location for their Body & Brain Center, but it is subject to the franchisor's approval. The location must be within the Site Selection Area, as defined in Part A of Attachment B of the Franchise Agreement, and must meet Body Brain Center's minimum site selection criteria.
The prospective franchisee must submit a comprehensive site report to Body Brain Center, including demographic, commercial, and other relevant information, as well as photographs and video tapes. Body Brain Center has the right to either accept or reject the proposed site based on their commercially reasonable judgment. Body Brain Center aims to approve or disapprove the site within ten business days of receiving all necessary materials.
It is important to note that Body Brain Center's approval of a site does not provide any guarantee about the site's suitability for a Body & Brain Center. The approval only indicates that the site meets Body Brain Center's minimum requirements. The final site approval will be documented on Part B of Attachment B, which both the franchisee and Body Brain Center will sign. If the franchisee plans to lease the premises, they must try to get the landlord to sign the Lease Addendum (Attachment C). Body Brain Center can disapprove the lease if the landlord refuses to sign the Lease Addendum, requiring the franchisee to find a new location.
