What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Kitchen Solvers Franchise Disclosure Document, for franchisees in Wisconsin, a specific acknowledgement is deleted from Section 16.B of the Franchise Agreement. This acknowledgement pertains to the franchisee's independent investigation of the Kitchen Solvers franchise program.
Specifically, the deleted provision states that the franchisee acknowledges entering the agreement as a result of their own independent investigation, and not due to any representations made by Kitchen Solvers' shareholders, officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, independent contractors, or franchisees that contradict the terms outlined in the agreement or any disclosure documents.
This deletion means that Wisconsin franchisees are not required to acknowledge that their decision to invest in a Kitchen Solvers franchise was based solely on their own investigation. This could potentially provide franchisees in Wisconsin with greater legal recourse if they believe they were misled by representations made by Kitchen Solvers or its representatives during the franchise sales process.
