What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Byrider's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, a franchisee is responsible for securing a suitable site for their Byrider business. Before acquiring the site, either by lease or purchase, the franchisee must submit a description of the proposed site to Byrider, along with other requested information. This submission must also include a letter of intent or other evidence that Byrider finds satisfactory, confirming the franchisee's favorable prospects for obtaining the proposed site.
Byrider will then provide written notice of approval or disapproval within thirty days of receiving the franchisee's written proposal. The approval of the site is subject to specific provisions outlined in the franchise agreement. Byrider's approval will not be unreasonably withheld, and if the site is disapproved, Byrider will provide a written explanation for the decision.
As a condition for approving any location, Byrider may require the franchisee to submit site analyses, maps, completed checklists, photographs, digital or video motion pictures of the site and surrounding areas, copies of proposed leases, diagrams of the Business Location with measurements, a letter of intent or other evidence of the Franchisee's favorable prospects of obtaining the proposed location, and such further information and materials as the Company may reasonably require to evaluate the Franchisee's proposed location. This comprehensive review process ensures that the chosen location meets Byrider's standards and has a high likelihood of success.
Prospective franchisees should be prepared to conduct thorough due diligence on potential sites and compile all necessary documentation for submission to Byrider. Understanding these requirements upfront can streamline the site selection process and help ensure a smooth launch of their Byrider franchise.
