What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Bumble Roofing's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, to qualify for the VetFran discount, a veteran must be honorably discharged and meet Bumble Roofing's general qualifications for new franchisees. If these conditions are met, Bumble Roofing will discount the initial franchise fee by 15%.
The VetFran discount can only be applied once for a single territory and toward the purchase of only one franchise concept offered by Bumble Roofing or its affiliates. This means a veteran cannot use the discount multiple times for different territories or franchise concepts.
It is important for prospective franchisees who are veterans to carefully review Bumble Roofing's standard qualifications for new franchisees to ensure they meet all the necessary criteria. They should also confirm with Bumble Roofing that they have the required documentation to prove their honorable discharge status. Understanding these requirements upfront will help veterans determine their eligibility for the VetFran discount and plan their investment accordingly.
