What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Bojangles' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, under the Development Incentive Program for Minorities, Women and Veterans, a developer may receive a 50% initial reduction of the then-current franchise fee for the first two restaurants developed under the program.
This incentive is part of Option 2 of the Development Incentive Program, which requires committing to opening three or more Bojangles restaurants. To qualify, the developer cannot participate in any other incentive programs under the same development agreement and must be in full compliance with all agreements with Bojangles and its affiliates.
This franchise fee reduction can significantly lower the initial investment for opening the first two Bojangles locations, making it more financially accessible for eligible developers. However, it's crucial to maintain compliance with all agreements to avoid losing the incentive. Prospective franchisees should carefully review all terms and conditions of the Development Incentive Program and ensure they meet all eligibility requirements.
