What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Crepe De Licious Franchise Disclosure Document, the 'Manual' within the context of the System Protection Agreement refers to the confidential operations manual used for running a Crepe De Licious business. This manual may be periodically updated or modified by Crepe De Licious.
As the manual contains confidential information, Crepe De Licious requires individuals who have access to it to maintain its confidentiality. This obligation extends to managers or officers of the franchisee, as outlined in the System Protection Agreement. These individuals are prohibited from using the information in any business other than the franchised Crepe De Licious business and must prevent unauthorized copies or disclosures.
Prospective franchisees should understand that the operations manual is a key component of the Crepe De Licious System. It contains the specific methods, procedures, and standards that franchisees must follow. Franchisees should inquire about the process and frequency of updates to the manual to ensure they remain compliant with the latest operational guidelines.
