What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Cinnaholic's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the Development Agreement will expire on the day after the operations of the final Cinnaholic Bakery to be established under the Development Agreement are required to begin, as specified in the Development Schedule.
This means the expiration date is directly tied to the agreed-upon schedule for opening new Cinnaholic locations. The Development Schedule outlines when each bakery is expected to commence operations, and the agreement concludes the day after the final bakery's opening date.
Prospective Cinnaholic franchisees should carefully review the Development Schedule during negotiations to understand the implications for the agreement's term. This is especially important for multi-unit developers, as the schedule dictates the overall timeframe for their expansion plans with Cinnaholic.
