What are the consequences if a Bombs Away franchisee refuses to cooperate with an audit by Bombs Away Franchising?

According to Bombs Away's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, if a franchisee refuses to cooperate with an audit or evaluation conducted by Bombs Away Franchising or its agents/contractors, it constitutes a breach of the franchise agreement. Specifically, this is tied to non-compliance with Section 10.5 or Section 11.2 of the agreement.

The consequence of such refusal is that Bombs Away Franchising has grounds to terminate the franchise agreement. This means Bombs Away can end the franchise relationship, potentially leading to the franchisee losing their business and investment.

This provision highlights the importance of transparency and adherence to Bombs Away's operational standards. Franchisees should be aware that cooperation with audits and evaluations is not optional but a mandatory requirement of the franchise agreement, and failure to comply can have severe repercussions.
