Does Buildingstars' failure to object to any request from a franchisee prohibit Buildingstars from objecting to any future requests?

According to Buildingstars' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Buildingstars retains the right to object to any future requests from a franchisee, regardless of whether they failed to object to similar requests in the past. This means that Buildingstars' approval of a franchisee's request for services or products outside the normal scope of the franchise does not set a precedent for future requests.

This provision gives Buildingstars broad discretion in managing its brand and ensuring that franchisees adhere to the established system. It protects Buildingstars from being bound by previous decisions and allows them to evaluate each request on its own merits. This is particularly important in maintaining consistency and quality across all Buildingstars franchises.

For a prospective Buildingstars franchisee, this means that securing approval for a non-standard service or product once does not guarantee future approvals. Each request will be subject to Buildingstars' review and approval based on the specific circumstances at that time. Franchisees should carefully consider this when planning their business operations and avoid assuming that past approvals will automatically be granted again.

This clause is fairly standard in franchise agreements, as franchisors typically want to maintain control over their brand and system. However, franchisees should be aware of this provision and understand that Buildingstars has the right to change its mind on a case-by-case basis.
