Under what conditions can Body Brain Center revoke approval of a previously approved supplier?

According to Body Brain Center's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Body Brain Center retains the right to reassess and potentially revoke approval of any supplier previously approved to provide source-restricted items. This is a notable aspect for prospective franchisees because it means that a supplier initially approved may not remain approved indefinitely.

Body Brain Center may, at its option, reinspect the facilities and products of any approved supplier. This reinspection allows Body Brain Center to ensure that the supplier continues to meet the franchisor's standards. If, upon reinspection, the supplier fails to meet Body Brain Center's then-current criteria, Body Brain Center can revoke its approval.

This ability to revoke approval provides Body Brain Center with ongoing control over the quality and standards of goods and services used by its franchisees. For a franchisee, this means they must be prepared to switch suppliers if Body Brain Center revokes approval from a previously authorized source. While this ensures brand consistency and quality, it also introduces a potential risk of supply chain disruption if a previously approved supplier loses its approval. Franchisees should stay informed of any changes to approved suppliers and understand the reasons behind any revocations to mitigate potential disruptions to their business operations.
