Under what conditions can Bor Restoration revoke approval of an alternative supplier?

According to Bor Restoration's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, Bor Restoration may revoke approval of an alternative supplier if they determine in good faith that the goods or services from that supplier no longer meet their quality standards. This means that even if a franchisee has received approval to use a supplier other than those initially designated or approved by Bor Restoration, that approval is not permanent.

For a prospective Bor Restoration franchisee, this implies that maintaining the quality of goods and services provided by alternative suppliers is crucial. If the quality drops below Bor Restoration's standards, the franchisee will be required to switch back to an approved supplier. This could potentially disrupt the franchisee's supply chain and possibly increase costs if the approved suppliers are more expensive.

It is important to note that the FDD does not provide specific details on how Bor Restoration assesses quality standards or what criteria are used. Therefore, a prospective franchisee should seek clarification from Bor Restoration regarding the specific quality standards that alternative suppliers must meet and the process by which Bor Restoration monitors and evaluates supplier quality. Understanding these standards and processes will help a franchisee make informed decisions about sourcing goods and services and managing supplier relationships.
