What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Camp Margaritaville's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees are permitted to sell only the goods and services that Camp Margaritaville authorizes. Furthermore, franchisees are obligated to sell all goods and services that Camp Margaritaville specifies.
Camp Margaritaville retains the right to modify the list of authorized goods and services at any time, and franchisees are required to comply with these changes. This means that Camp Margaritaville has considerable control over the products and services offered at the franchise location.
For a prospective franchisee, this implies a need to stay flexible and adaptable to changes implemented by Camp Margaritaville. While this could ensure brand consistency and potentially introduce new revenue streams, it also carries the risk of requiring franchisees to invest in new products or services that may not be immediately profitable or align with their local market. Franchisees should inquire about the frequency and nature of past changes to understand the potential impact on their business.
