What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to Desi District's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, if you and Desi District cannot agree on a site for your franchise, you will not be able to fulfill your obligation to develop and open the franchise by the deadline stated in the franchise agreement.
Unless Desi District agrees to extend the deadline, you will be in default of the agreement. This default gives Desi District the right to terminate your franchise agreement.
This highlights the importance of site selection and the need for a good working relationship with Desi District during this process. Franchisees should carefully consider potential locations and ensure they meet Desi District's approval criteria to avoid potential conflicts and the risk of termination.
