Territory Protection
The FranNet franchise does not grant exclusive or protected territories to its franchisees. Franchisees may face competition from other franchisees, company-owned outlets, or other distribution channels controlled by FranNet.
Although franchisees can work with prospects from any location, they must respect the protected territories of certain legacy franchisees where territorial restrictions apply.
FranNet also reserves the right to sell services, operate businesses, and authorize others to operate FranNet businesses regardless of proximity to an existing franchise. Leads generated through national relationships or the internet are distributed through a centralized system, sometimes requiring referral fees when working in a legacy franchisee’s protected area.
