According to Buns On Fire's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, if a franchisee requests to relocate their franchise business, they must pay a $2,500 relocation fee. This fee covers Buns On Fire's costs related to the relocation request.
This means that if a franchisee wants to move their existing Buns On Fire location, they will incur this $2,500 fee to cover the franchisor's expenses in evaluating and processing the relocation request. It is important for prospective franchisees to understand that this fee is in addition to the costs associated with physically moving and setting up the new location, which are not detailed here.
