What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Nothing Bundt Cakes Franchise Disclosure Document, the Site Selection Addendum is attached as Exhibit 1 to the Franchise Agreement. This addendum is signed when the franchisee signs the Franchise Agreement and it outlines the site selection territory and the process for selecting a location for the bakery. This means that before a Nothing Bundt Cakes franchise can begin operations, the franchisor must approve the location.
The franchisee cannot relocate the bakery without prior written consent from Nothing Bundt Cakes. If relocation is approved or deemed necessary by Nothing Bundt Cakes due to the location's commercial characteristics no longer meeting their criteria, the franchisee must find a new location within their territory. This new site must also meet Nothing Bundt Cakes' then-current site selection and construction procedures.
In the event of a required relocation, the franchisee must secure a site acceptable to Nothing Bundt Cakes within 90 days before closing the current location and open at the new location within 30 days of closing the existing one. Failure to obtain prior written consent for relocation can result in immediate termination of the Franchise Agreement.
