What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to Bombs Away's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, Bombs Away has the authority to issue new or modify existing specifications and standards for any aspect of its brand system. These specifications and standards are communicated through the Bombs Away Manual or written directives, which can be delivered through any method Bombs Away chooses.
Bombs Away states that it will generally issue new or revised specifications after thorough testing. This testing may occur at Bombs Away headquarters, in company-owned outlets, or through limited market tests in multiple units. However, Bombs Away is not obligated to conduct such testing before implementing changes.
This flexibility allows Bombs Away to adapt to changing market conditions, technological advancements, or evolving customer preferences. For a prospective franchisee, this means they must be prepared to adapt their business practices and potentially invest in new equipment or supplies as Bombs Away updates its standards. It is important to stay informed of any updates to the Bombs Away Manual or written directives to ensure compliance and maintain the brand's consistency.
