What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Hawaiian Bros Island Grill's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the company may hold a franchisee convention no more than once per year. If Hawaiian Bros Island Grill holds a convention, franchisees are required to attend. Franchisees must also pay a registration fee, the amount of which has not yet been established, due upon registration for the convention.

As the registration fee is not yet established, prospective franchisees should inquire about the estimated cost to budget accordingly. Franchisees should also factor in the mandatory attendance and associated travel and lodging costs when evaluating the overall financial commitment of the franchise.
