What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Crave Cookies' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Crave Cookies or its designee has the right to enter the leased premises under specific circumstances. Upon the expiration or termination of the Franchise Agreement or the Lease, or the termination of the franchisee's right of possession of the leased premises, Crave Cookies or its designee may enter the premises.
This right to enter is contingent upon providing reasonable prior notice to the landlord. The purpose of this entry is specifically to remove signs and other materials that display Crave Cookies' brand name, trademarks, and commercial symbols.
However, Crave Cookies is responsible for any damage caused during the removal process. Furthermore, Crave Cookies' right to enter the premises for this purpose expires 30 days after they receive notice from the landlord that the franchisee's right of possession has been terminated. This clause ensures Crave Cookies can protect its brand identity while also limiting its liability and the duration of its access to the property.
