What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Cinnaholic's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, no party associated with the franchisor is currently subject to an injunctive or restrictive order related to the franchise. This includes the franchisor, its predecessors, individuals identified in Item 2, and any affiliates offering franchises under Cinnaholic's trademark.
Specifically, the FDD confirms that no such party is under any current legal restriction pertaining to franchise, securities, antitrust, trade regulation, or trade practice law resulting from actions by a public agency. This extends to orders from national securities associations or exchanges, and any injunctive or restrictive orders affecting other business activities due to actions by public agencies, including those impacting real estate licenses.
This absence of injunctive or restrictive orders suggests a stable legal standing for Cinnaholic and its associated parties, which can be a positive indicator for prospective franchisees. It implies that the franchisor is not currently facing legal challenges that could disrupt the franchise system's operations.
