To whom may Fitstop make its criteria for approving or rejecting new suppliers available?

According to Fitstop's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, the criteria Fitstop uses for approving or rejecting new suppliers is considered proprietary. However, Fitstop may, but is not required to, make these criteria available to the franchisee upon request.

This means that while Fitstop has the discretion to share the criteria with its franchisees, it is not obligated to do so. As a potential franchisee, understanding these criteria could be beneficial in suggesting alternative suppliers or understanding why a supplier was rejected.

It is important for a prospective Fitstop franchisee to discuss this with Fitstop during their due diligence to understand the circumstances under which this information might be shared. This will help the franchisee understand the flexibility they have in choosing suppliers and the level of transparency Fitstop provides in this process.
