According to Crowne Plaza's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, no officer of Holiday currently owns any interest in an approved supplier or service provider. This statement assures prospective franchisees that there are no apparent conflicts of interest at the time of the FDD's publication regarding Holiday's officers and the brand's approved vendors.

However, the FDD also clarifies that this situation could change in the future. Specifically, the document states that nothing prevents Holiday from having an ownership interest in any business, including those providing products or services to franchisees or offering procurement services. Furthermore, Holiday is under no obligation to maintain such an interest or refrain from disposing of it as they see fit.

Prospective franchisees should stay informed of any such changes, as these relationships could potentially influence supplier recommendations or requirements.
