What is a Buildingstars franchisee required to do to identify themselves as the business owner?

According to Buildingstars's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, a franchisee must file an assumed or fictitious name filing where required by applicable law. Additionally, the franchisee must always use the abbreviation "d/b/a" (doing business as) after the franchisee's legal name.

This requirement ensures that while franchisees operate under the Buildingstars brand, their distinct legal identity is also clear. This is a common practice in franchising, allowing the franchisee to benefit from the brand's recognition while maintaining their own business structure and legal responsibilities.

By using "d/b/a" and filing the appropriate paperwork, Buildingstars franchisees comply with legal requirements and clearly establish their role as independent business owners operating under the Buildingstars franchise system. This helps to avoid confusion and ensures transparency in their business operations.
