What This Means (2025 FDD)
Based on the 2025 Kitchen Solvers Franchise Disclosure Document, there is no addendum specifically for the state of Hawaii within the provided excerpts. However, the document includes addenda for California, Virginia, Wisconsin, Minnesota, New York, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Illinois, addressing specific legal and regulatory requirements in those states.
The presence of these state-specific addenda indicates that Kitchen Solvers acknowledges and complies with state franchise laws where applicable. These addenda modify certain provisions of the standard franchise agreement to align with state regulations, such as those concerning termination, non-renewal, dispute resolution, and waivers.
For a prospective franchisee in Hawaii, this means the standard Kitchen Solvers franchise agreement might not fully reflect local laws. It would be prudent to directly ask Kitchen Solvers whether the franchise is registered in Hawaii and if any specific modifications to the franchise agreement are necessary to comply with Hawaii state law. This inquiry will help ensure full compliance and protect the franchisee's rights under Hawaiian law.
