Steps to owning your own baonanas franchise:

  1. Fill out the form below. Once submitted, you will receive a Franchise Disclosure document (FDD) via Docusign within 1-2 business days.

  2. Reviewing the Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD): Our FDD is an FTC-regulated overview of the #Baonanas Franchise experience including goals and expectations, locations available, cost, operations manual contents, and training curriculum. This will include a template of the Baonanas Franchise Agreement which is a contract under which the franchisor grants the franchisee the right to operate a business, or offer, sell, or distribute goods or services identified or associated with the franchisor's trademark.

  3. Upon receiving the FDD, you must sign the “read receipt” found on the last page of the FDD to notify us that you’d like to be considered for the next step. This is a non-binding signature and will not result in any costs or fees, but it will provide you with a 1:1 conversation with our Franchising team to continue exploring the possibilities!

  4. 2-way Interview(s): This is an opportunity for us to get to know each other better and to see if we’re the right fit for each other. We’ll dive into what it is you are hoping to find in a Baonanas Franchise experience and what it is we are looking for. In addition, preliminary collaboration on potential locations and operational strategies may commence during this interview. This meeting aims to identify your potential team’s strengths, weaknesses, and passions to identify how to set up best the roles and responsibilities for the franchisee’s organizational structure.

  5. Proposing a location: You’ll provide 1-2 territories to open your #Baonanas Franchise and we will collaborate on finalizing what your territory and its operations will entail.

  6. Purchasing your franchise: After your territory and operation are approved, you’ll sign the Franchise Agreement, submit the Franchise fee, and any other initial fees. Time for our entrepreneurial journey to begin!

  7. Lease Signing & Construction: Immediately after signing a Franchise Agreement it’s about finding a space and signing a lease. We’ll provide guidance every step of the way from lease negotiations, store buildout, and more.

  8. Onboarding: You’ll be working directly with our Co-Founder & Chief Executive Bear, Lloyd to learn everything you need to operate a successful baonanas franchise. In addition to continued entrepreneurial advisement, our comprehensive training program includes hands-on training on the "field" and in the "classroom." Tailor-made to your organizational structure, this curriculum will teach you Baonanas’ marketing, operational, and financial strategies.

  9. Grand Opening: You did it! You’re ready to open the doors of your #Baonanas Franchise and serve happiness to the masses! A comprehensive Grand Opening strategy will be supplied and our Franchising Team will be there all week long to see it all executed properly.

  10. Consistent contact and constant support with our #Baonanas Franchising Team: For the lifetime of your franchise you’ll get a direct line to our CEB in case you need guidance or advisement. Our goal is to set you up for success and be one call away should you need any mentorship, guidance, or advisement.

If you’ve made it this far in the application, we thank you for considering owning a Baonanas Franchise!
