How will Burneys Sweets More communicate its decision regarding a proposed supplier?

To use a supplier, product, service, or vendor that we have not already approved, you must first submit to us certain information including product specifications, costs, product components, performance history, product samples, supplier information or photographs, and any other relevant information. We will evaluate the proposed good, service, or supplier based upon certain criteria and determine if you are approved to use the alternate good, service, or supplier. We do not make the criteria available to you. If the good, service, or supplier meets our criteria, you may use it. We do inform you that we generally evaluate technical and performance properties of the good, service, or supplier, including design, appearance, product reliability, durability, the manufacturer's warranties, quality control methods, taste, ingredients, financial ability of the product's producers and distributors, supplier history and reputation, and supplier capacity. Our review is generally completed in 90 days. If we do not approve of the supplier, good, or service within 120 days, then that good, service, or supplier is deemed not approved and you must not use that supplier, good, or service. We will advise you in writing of our decision. We impose these restrictions to safeguard the integrity of both the System and our Marks. We reserve the right to revoke approval for any good, service, or supplier for any reason, and you must cease to use the good, service, or supplier upon 30 days' notice from us.
