Where must a Hyper Kidz franchisee place notices stating the business is independently owned and operated?

According to the 2024 Hyper Kidz Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees are required to place notices at their franchised business indicating that it is independently owned and operated. While Hyper Kidz mandates that these notices be displayed, the specific locations for these notices are not explicitly defined in the FDD. Hyper Kidz retains the right to specify where these notices must be placed.

This means that while franchisees are obligated to inform customers of their independent ownership, the franchisor, Hyper Kidz, has the authority to determine the exact placement of these notices. This could include areas such as the entrance, point of sale, or other prominent locations within the facility.

Prospective Hyper Kidz franchisees should clarify with the franchisor during their due diligence process where these notices are typically required to be placed. Understanding these requirements is essential for ensuring compliance with the franchise agreement and maintaining a consistent brand image, while also informing customers about the ownership structure of the specific Hyper Kidz location they are visiting.
