What is the 'Delivery Window' referring to in the Crave Commercial Sub-Lease Agreement?

According to Crave's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the "Delivery Window" in the Commercial Sub-Lease Agreement refers to the timeframe in which the subleased premises will be delivered to the sublessee, and the premises will be delivered "as is".

This is relevant to prospective Crave franchisees because it sets the expectation that the physical space they are subleasing from Crave WM Franchising LLC will be provided in its current condition. The franchisee should inspect the premises thoroughly before signing the agreement to ensure it meets their needs or to factor in any necessary improvements into their budget and timeline.

The agreement specifies that the sublessee accepts the premises "as is," meaning Crave is not obligated to make any modifications or repairs before handing over the space. This could potentially save Crave costs, but it places the burden on the franchisee to handle any required upgrades or fixes to meet brand standards or operational needs. Therefore, understanding the delivery window and the condition of the premises is a crucial part of assessing the overall investment and potential challenges of the franchise.
