Key Red Flags Identified

highItem 6

Tiered Royalty Rate Reaches 57% of Gross Profit

The 7-Eleven Charge (royalty) is calculated as a percentage of Gross Profit and escalates from 48% to approximately 57% as store gross profit increases through defined tiers, meaning high-performing stores pay the highest royalty rate.

Broad Franchisor Termination Rights With Short Cure Periods

The franchise agreement permits 7-Eleven to terminate for a wide range of defaults with cure periods as short as 3 days, and certain defaults are designated non-curable, allowing immediate termination without any opportunity to remedy the breach.

Renewal Requires Then-Current Agreement With Potentially Different Terms

Upon renewal, franchisees must sign 7-Eleven's then-current franchise agreement, which may contain materially different fees, standards, or obligations than the original agreement, and must also execute a general release of all claims against 7-Eleven.
