You're writing as if food delivery was a new thing and therefore completely unknown. If my local bakery can get UberEats worked out, I'll boldly state that a company like Krispy Kreme can probably afford a lawyer or two to read a contract without evaporating 1.5 million dollars or whatever.
Fire someone, reduce bonuses, perhaps a stern look at the next regional meeting. Figure it out people. Good grief. Companies complain about slow revenue growth while leaving obvious money on the table. This example was a business refusing a $1000 or similar per month. That might not be much to you, but I'm fairly sure a franchisee would notice that. $12k/year is measurable for most small businesses even if you wouldn't even notice that amount.
They would have to add some sort of management structure, make sure he was up to hygiene codes, incorporate the new model in their finance and admin, produce risk assessments, have meetings, do a ton of work I can't even think of.
It would cost them $100,000s, for a few $1,000 revenue.
That they've been forced to adopt him because of an online backlash is an indictment of the irrationality of the internet, not a bad mark against the totally reasonable, and rational, decision an employee made.
And now you're calling for him to be fired. Sad.
