What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Pearce Bespoke's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the initial term length for a standard franchise agreement is 10 years, as detailed in Section 2(A) of the agreement. This means a new franchisee can expect to operate their Pearce Bespoke franchise for a decade before needing to consider renewal.
Pearce Bespoke offers the possibility of extending the franchise term. Franchisees who meet the requirements outlined in Section 2(B) of the Franchise Agreement have the option to renew for up to two additional 5-year periods. To qualify for renewal, franchisees must provide advance written notice, sign the then-current Franchise Agreement, pay a renewal fee, remodel their location, meet all current brand standards, secure an extension of their lease, and remain in compliance with the existing Franchise Agreement throughout its term.
It's important to note that Pearce Bespoke may present a Franchise Agreement with materially different terms and conditions at the time of renewal, so franchisees should carefully review any proposed changes. All renewal provisions are subject to state law, which may provide additional protections or requirements for franchisees. This initial term and the renewal options provide a framework for the franchisee's long-term investment and operation of their Pearce Bespoke business.
