What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Crepe De Licious's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Non-Traditional Sites are defined as outlets that primarily serve customers located within a specific facility. These facilities are categorized into captive audience facilities, limited purpose facilities, and limited access facilities.
Captive audience facilities include locations such as parks charging admission, stadiums, amusement parks and centers, theaters, and art centers. Limited purpose facilities encompass areas like airports, transportation centers, department stores, indoor shopping centers, office buildings, business and industrial complexes, museums, educational facilities, hospitals, art centers, and recreational parks. Limited access facilities are defined as military complexes, buyer club businesses, educational facilities, and business and industrial complexes.
For a prospective Crepe De Licious franchisee, understanding this definition is crucial as it broadens the potential locations beyond traditional storefronts. This allows for opportunities to establish a Crepe De Licious restaurant in venues with a built-in customer base, potentially leading to higher traffic and revenue. However, it's important to consider the specific requirements and restrictions that may be imposed by these non-traditional locations, such as limited operating hours or specific menu adaptations.
