What This Means (2025 FDD)

Based on the 2025 Kitchen Solvers Franchise Disclosure Document, there is no addendum included for the state of Hawaii. However, there are addenda for California, New York, Maryland, Minnesota and Illinois. This suggests that Kitchen Solvers may not be registered to offer franchises in Hawaii at this time.

For a prospective franchisee, this means that the standard Kitchen Solvers franchise agreement might not be fully compliant with local laws and regulations in Hawaii. Franchise laws vary significantly from state to state, and registration ensures that the franchisor has met specific requirements for offering franchises in that jurisdiction.

It is important for anyone interested in opening a Kitchen Solvers franchise in Hawaii to directly confirm with the franchisor whether they are registered in Hawaii and what specific legal considerations would apply. A prospective franchisee should also seek independent legal counsel to review the franchise agreement and ensure compliance with Hawaii state laws.
