What Minnesota statutes regarding franchise termination and non-renewal does Chicken Guy comply with?

According to the 2025 Chicken Guy Franchise Disclosure Document, for franchises governed by Minnesota law, Chicken Guy will comply with Minnesota Statute § 80C.14, subdivisions 3, 4, and 5. These statutes generally require that a franchisee be given 90 days' notice of termination, which includes a 60-day period to cure any issues, and 180 days' notice for non-renewal of the franchise agreement. However, these requirements are subject to certain specified exceptions.

This compliance ensures that Chicken Guy franchisees in Minnesota receive adequate notice and opportunity to address any issues before termination or non-renewal, aligning with Minnesota state law. The statutes aim to protect franchisees from abrupt or unfair termination or non-renewal of their franchise agreements.

Prospective franchisees should be aware of these protections under Minnesota law, as they provide a framework for fair dealing between Chicken Guy and its franchisees. It is important to note that the specific circumstances under which these notice periods apply may vary, and franchisees should carefully review their franchise agreements and consult with legal counsel to fully understand their rights and obligations under Minnesota law.
