Can the franchisee terminate the Crave Cookies MUDA at any time?

According to Crave Cookies's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, a franchisee has the option to terminate the Multi-Unit Development Agreement (MUDA) at any time. This provides the franchisee with flexibility in their development plans.

However, it's important to note that the MUDA is automatically terminated under certain conditions. These conditions include failure to satisfy the development schedule outlined in the agreement or if Crave Cookies has the right to terminate any existing franchise agreement with the franchisee due to default.

This termination clause in favor of the franchisee provides a degree of freedom, but franchisees should carefully consider the implications of terminating the MUDA, especially in relation to any deposits or fees paid, and the potential loss of development rights. Franchisees should also be aware of the conditions under which Crave Cookies can terminate the MUDA, ensuring they adhere to the development schedule and maintain compliance with all franchise agreements to avoid automatic termination.
