What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to Hyper Kidz's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, a franchisee is responsible for arranging the blueprints and/or construction plans necessary for the build-out of their Franchised Business. Hyper Kidz retains the right to designate the specific architect or design firm that the franchisee must use for these plans. The franchisee must also adhere to Hyper Kidz's layout requirements for the business.
Before construction can begin, the franchisee must submit these blueprints or construction plans to Hyper Kidz for approval. Hyper Kidz's review is focused on verifying compliance with their standards and the proper presentation of their Proprietary Marks. However, it is the franchisee's responsibility to ensure that the plans comply with all applicable laws, ordinances, and building codes, including the Americans with Disabilities Act.
Hyper Kidz has the right to inspect the Franchised Business during construction. The franchisee cannot open the Hyper Kidz location until Hyper Kidz has given its final approval for opening. This process ensures that each location meets the brand's standards and complies with all necessary regulations before commencing operations.
