The purposes of the Council include exchanging ideas and problem-solving methods, advising us on expenditures for regional advertising and coordinating franchisee efforts. You shall pay all assessments levied by the Council, and we have the right to enforce this obligation. Amounts and expenditures may vary due to variations in Council participation and costs as determined by a particular Council and as approved by us.

The vendor opportunity at Extreme Pizza

Extreme Pizza operates 20 locations: 19 franchised and 1 company-owned. Franchised outlets declined 5% year over year. The FDD makes a financial performance representation in Item 19, but no average unit volume figure is stated for the cohort. For software vendors, the total addressable market is small — 20 units — and the sales cycle will be concentrated at the franchisor level.

Who controls software purchasing

Item 2 of the FDD names Todd Parent as Founder and CEO, Suzanne Duhig as Executive Vice President, and Nicole Lomonaco as Director of Marketing. The franchisor mandates specific technology and requires franchisees to comply with system-wide network participation. This centralization means software purchasing decisions are likely made or heavily influenced by HQ leadership, not individual franchisees.

Tech named in the FDD, and what is actually required

Item 11 obliges franchisees to use HungerRush as the point-of-sale system. The filing states: "You must purchase or lease the HungerRush POS ('POS') system." Franchisees must also obtain computer hardware necessary to implement the franchisor's proprietary software and comply with all specifications in the Operations Manual. The franchisor does not provide updates, upgrades, or maintenance for the POS system.

Item 6 names XtraChef by Toast as in use. DoorDash, Grubhub, and Uber Eats are also named in the filing. The FDD requires franchisees to participate in any system-wide area computer network, intranet, or extranet that the franchisor implements, including online submission of reports.

Procurement, renewals, and timing

Item 8 establishes an approved-supplier list. Franchisees must purchase items on the Itemized Supply List, Supplemental Supply List, and Equipment List from the franchisor or a designated supplier. Other items may be purchased from any approved supplier on the Approved Suppliers List. Franchisees may propose new suppliers for approval. The franchisor reserves the right to derive revenue from required purchases.

Initial franchise terms are 15 years. Item 17 provides for two successive 10-year renewal periods, subject to conditions. With a small and slightly declining unit count, software contract opportunities will be infrequent and likely tied to renewals, new openings, or system-wide technology changes initiated by HQ.
