Frequently Asked Questions
What happens to a coffee franchise if the owner dies?
Most coffee franchise agreements require franchisor approval for ownership transfers. Without proper planning, the franchise may need to be sold quickly or returned to the franchisor. Life insurance provides liquidity for heirs to either continue operations while seeking approval or fund an orderly sale at fair value.
Do multi-unit coffee franchise operators need more coverage?
Yes. Multi-unit operators should calculate coverage based on the total portfolio value, including all locations' equipment, leasehold improvements, and franchise agreement goodwill. Transfer fees multiply with each location, making comprehensive coverage essential for portfolio protection.
