Crumbl Cookies offers territory protection to its franchisees, ensuring that each franchisee operates within a designated area without competition from other Crumbl locations.
The specific size of the territory is determined by factors such as population density, business base, and whether the area is metropolitan or rural. Typically, these territories are set between one to two miles from the franchise location, though the exact boundaries can be defined by zip codes, streets, or other recognizable demarcations.
However, the franchisor reserves the right to adjust territory boundaries if significant changes occur, such as population growth in the area, ensuring the best possible market conditions for both existing and new franchisees.
