What happens if Floyds 99 disapproves of a site proposed by the Franchisee?

According to the 2025 Floyds 99 Franchise Disclosure Document, if Floyds 99 disapproves of a site proposed by the franchisee, they will grant the franchisee an additional, reasonable period of time to obtain approval of a franchised location. The length of this extension will be determined in Floyds 99's reasonable business judgment.

This means that the franchisee is not left without options if their initial site choice is rejected. However, the franchisee should be aware that the extension is not indefinite, and Floyds 99 ultimately decides what constitutes a 'reasonable' timeframe. It is important to maintain open communication with Floyds 99 during the site selection process to understand their criteria and address any concerns promptly.

Furthermore, the FDD states that Floyds 99 will not unreasonably withhold approval of a proposed site that meets all of their site selection criteria. This implies that if a franchisee finds a location that adheres to Floyds 99's guidelines, approval should be granted. However, the franchisee bears the responsibility of ensuring the site meets all requirements and providing a complete site submittal package for review.
