What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Browns Chicken's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, if a franchisee offers video gaming at their establishment, they must obtain a Municipal License or Permit from the municipality where the store is located. This license or permit must be renewed annually or at such other intervals as required by the municipality.
This means that the renewal frequency for the Municipal License or Permit is not fixed but depends on the specific regulations of the municipality in which the Browns Chicken franchise is located. It is the franchisee's responsibility to understand and comply with these local requirements.
Browns Chicken franchisees are required to furnish copies of both the State License and the Municipal License or Permit to the franchisor within two days of issuance or renewal, ensuring that Browns Chicken is aware of the franchisee's compliance with gaming regulations. Failing to maintain the required licenses could lead to penalties, including the termination of the Video Gaming Rider G to the franchise agreement.
