What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Buona's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the Franchise Acknowledgement Questionnaire does not have a pre-assigned number. The document includes a section in the questionnaire where the franchisee is required to fill in a 'Questionnaire Number'. This suggests that the number is assigned by either the franchisee or the franchisor at the time of completion.
This could mean the number is simply a sequential identifier for record-keeping, or it could relate to a specific tracking system Buona uses internally. The questionnaire itself is designed to confirm that the prospective franchisee has received and understood key documents, such as the Franchise Agreement and Franchise Disclosure Document.
It is important to note that prospective franchisees in California are instructed not to complete the questionnaire. This may be due to specific state regulations regarding franchise disclosures.
A prospective Buona franchisee should ask the franchisor how the 'Questionnaire Number' is used and who is responsible for assigning it to ensure proper completion and tracking of the document.
