Crisp_Green Franchise · 2024 FDDAnswer from 2024 FDD Document
We will evaluate each proposed site based on the market area, population density and other demographic characteristics, visibility, traffic flow, competition, accessibility, parking, size, and other physical and commercial characteristics. In general, we believe that ideal sites for Restaurants are between 2,000 – 2,500 square feet, are located in an upscale urban or suburban multi-tenant development, are located on a building end-cap, have a patio, and have plentiful free parking spaces. However, we evaluate sites on a case by case basis and sites that are suitable for Restaurants may not necessarily have all of these characteristics. Once we have approved a site, it is your responsibility to conform the premises to local ordinances and building codes, and to obtain any required permits. Additionally, it is your responsibility to oversee the construction, remodeling, and/or decorating of the premises, according to the standards and guidelines we provide you.

What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to Crisp & Green's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, the company evaluates proposed sites for a restaurant based on several factors. These include the market area, population density, demographic characteristics, visibility, traffic flow, competition, accessibility, parking, size, and other physical and commercial characteristics.
Crisp & Green generally prefers sites between 2,000 and 2,500 square feet located in upscale urban or suburban multi-tenant developments. Ideal locations are on a building end-cap, have a patio, and offer plentiful free parking spaces. However, Crisp & Green evaluates sites on a case-by-case basis, acknowledging that suitable locations may not possess all of these preferred characteristics.
It is important to note that the franchisor's approval of a site only indicates that it meets their criteria at the time. This approval does not guarantee the site's success due to demographic or other unforeseen factors. The franchisee bears the responsibility of conforming the premises to local ordinances and building codes and obtaining the necessary permits. Additionally, the franchisee is responsible for overseeing the construction, remodeling, and/or decorating of the premises according to Crisp & Green's standards and guidelines.
