What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Crave's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees who enter into a Multi-Unit Development Agreement and develop additional Crave franchises must sign the then-current form of the Franchise Agreement offered to new franchisees. This agreement may differ from the initial Franchise Agreement included in the Disclosure Document.
This means that the terms and conditions under which each additional Crave franchise operates could be subject to change based on the Franchise Agreement currently in use at the time of signing. These changes could include variations in fees, operational requirements, or brand standards.
Prospective franchisees should carefully consider that the terms of their franchise agreement may evolve over time, potentially impacting their business operations and profitability. It is important to discuss with Crave the potential differences between the initial Franchise Agreement and any subsequent versions that may be required for additional franchise locations under a Multi-Unit Development Agreement.
