What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Floyds 99 Franchise Disclosure Document, the franchisor provides franchisees with assistance in the initial establishment of their shop through a designated site selection service provider. This service includes a representative making one on-site visit to the market area. During this visit, the representative will help the franchisee with specifications for space requirements, build out considerations, and understanding the demographics and character of the surrounding market area.
It is important to note that Floyds 99 has no other obligation to provide assistance in site selection beyond this designated provider's help and the franchisor's approval or disapproval of the proposed location. The approval or disapproval will be based on the information submitted by the franchisee in a form sufficient for the franchisor to assess the proposed location.
This service is a valuable resource for new franchisees, as site selection is a critical factor in the success of a Floyds 99 shop. The on-site visit and expert advice can help franchisees make informed decisions about location, space, and build out, while also considering the local market dynamics. However, the franchisee should be aware that the ultimate responsibility for selecting a suitable site rests with them, and the franchisor's approval does not guarantee the site's suitability or success.
