What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Bonchon's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, if a franchisee operates a Remote Kitchen Restaurant, the Protected Territory will be no greater than a one-tenth (0.1) mile radius from the Bonchon Business. However, the specific Protected Territory will depend on the franchisee's specific market and circumstances.
This means that Bonchon franchisees operating a Remote Kitchen Restaurant will have a very limited protected territory, which is significantly smaller than the typical radius for a standard Bonchon restaurant. The FDD states that standard Bonchon restaurants typically have a radius that is no greater than 3 miles from the Bonchon Business or less than 0.25 miles.
This limited territory could impact the potential customer base and overall revenue for the Remote Kitchen Restaurant. Bonchon determines the Protected Territory based on market conditions, so it is important for prospective franchisees to understand the factors that will influence the size and location of their territory.
Prospective franchisees should carefully consider the implications of this limited territory and discuss any concerns with Bonchon before signing the Franchise Agreement. Understanding the market dynamics and how they relate to the territory is crucial for the success of a Remote Kitchen Restaurant.
