What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Hydrodog's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the Franchise Agreement addresses site development and other pre-opening requirements in several sections. Specifically, Sections 2.1, 2.3, 4.1, 4.3, 5.7, 6.4, 7.1, and 7.3 of the Franchise Agreement detail these obligations.
The disclosure document itself also covers these requirements in Items 6, 7, and 11. Item 6 likely refers to initial fees, Item 7 to estimated initial investment, and Item 11 to the Hydrodog's assistance, advertising, computer systems, and training.
This means that prospective Hydrodog franchisees should carefully review these sections of both the Franchise Agreement and the disclosure document to fully understand their responsibilities related to site development and pre-opening preparations. These responsibilities could include tasks such as securing the location, managing construction or build-out, obtaining necessary permits, and ensuring the site meets Hydrodog's specifications before opening.
