What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to Devon Creek's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees must have and maintain adequate hardware and software to access the internet at the speed required by Devon Creek from time to time. This means the specific internet speed requirement is not fixed but is subject to change at Devon Creek's discretion.
This requirement has practical implications for prospective franchisees. They need to ensure they can meet Devon Creek's internet speed requirements, whatever those may be at any given time. Franchisees are also responsible for the costs of internet access and any required hardware or software. This is in addition to other technology fees required by the agreement.
It is important for potential Devon Creek franchisees to discuss the current and expected internet speed requirements with the franchisor. Understanding these requirements will help franchisees budget for the necessary technology and ensure they can meet Devon Creek's operational standards. Franchisees also need to maintain the security of their computer and payment processing systems.
