Cabin Coffee Co. offers territory protection to its franchisees, helping ensure that each location has a fair chance to succeed without facing competition from another Cabin Coffee Co. shop nearby. This protected territory is typically defined in the franchise agreement and is based on factors such as population density and geographic boundaries.
The goal is to give franchisees confidence that the brand will not place another unit too close to their location. While the size of the protected territory may vary depending on the market, Cabin Coffee Co. works closely with franchisees to determine reasonable and mutually beneficial boundaries.
Franchisees can rely on this protection as part of their investment security and long-term growth potential. However, it’s important for franchisees to understand that the territory protection generally applies only to traditional units and may not cover nontraditional locations like airports or universities.
