Where are Chocolate Bash franchisees permitted to make sales?

According to Chocolate Bash's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees are granted the right to operate a Chocolate Bash business solely at the Location. The agreement specifies that the franchisee must develop, open, and operate the Chocolate Bash business at this designated Location for the entire term of the agreement. The Location is defined as the location stated on the Summary Page; if no location is specified there, it will be determined according to Section 6.1 of the agreement.

This means that a Chocolate Bash franchisee's primary and contractually obligated point of sale is their approved physical Location. While the FDD excerpts do not explicitly prohibit online sales or catering outside the Location, the emphasis on a specific physical site suggests that these activities may be restricted or require additional approval from Chocolate Bash.

Prospective franchisees should clarify with Chocolate Bash the extent to which they can conduct sales activities outside of their designated Location, including online orders, delivery services, and participation in local events or markets. Understanding these potential limitations is crucial for developing a comprehensive business plan and revenue projections.
