What section of the Franchise Agreement discusses Bumper Man's evaluation of alternate designated suppliers?

According to the 2025 Bumper Man Franchise Disclosure Document, Section 6(f) of the Franchise Agreement pertains to the evaluation of alternate designated suppliers. Specifically, during the operation of the franchisee's Bumper Business, Bumper Man will evaluate any alternate designated suppliers that the franchisee proposes for approval.

This means that as a Bumper Man franchisee, you have the opportunity to suggest alternative suppliers to the franchisor for consideration. This could potentially allow you to source supplies at a lower cost or from a supplier with whom you have an existing relationship. However, it's important to note that Bumper Man retains the right to approve or disapprove any proposed alternate supplier.

It is common in franchising for franchisors to maintain control over the supply chain to ensure quality and consistency across all franchise locations. While Bumper Man allows franchisees to propose alternate suppliers, the final decision rests with the franchisor. A prospective franchisee should inquire about the criteria Bumper Man uses to evaluate alternate suppliers and the process for submitting a proposal.
