What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Burger King's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the standards for the Burger King of Tomorrow (BKoT) Enhance are specified in the Scope of Work attached as Exhibit "A" to the BKoT Amendment. This amendment is part of the Franchise Agreement and outlines the renovations, repairs, replacements, remodelings, and/or rebuildings required to conform the franchised restaurant to BKoT standards.
The FDD emphasizes that completing the BKoT Enhance according to the Scope of Work is a material consideration for Burger King entering into the BKoT Amendment. Franchisees must complete the BKoT Enhance in a professional, workmanlike manner, adhering to both Burger King and industry standards, by the specified BKoT Enhance Completion Date. The document also mentions a Double Drive Thru Exception, which allows for modifications to the requirements under certain conditions, such as permitting issues, landlord disapproval, or site restrictions.
Failure to complete the BKoT Enhance as determined by Burger King by the BKoT Enhance Cure Period constitutes a material default under the Franchise Agreement. Burger King retains the right to equitable relief requiring performance of the franchisee's obligations, including the recovery of all enforcement costs and attorney's fees. This equitable relief is in addition to any other remedies available to Burger King.
