Below are the key components of the program:

Territory Protection
More Space Place provides a protected territory to each franchisee as outlined in the Franchise Agreement. The franchisor agrees not to establish another franchise or company-owned outlet operating under the More Space Place name within that defined area.
However, the territory may overlap with other franchisees or affiliated businesses, and the franchisee is not given exclusivity in all forms of distribution or marketing.
Despite this protection, More Space Place retains broad rights to operate or license competing businesses under different names, even within the franchisee’s territory. Franchisees are allowed to serve customers outside their territory but cannot advertise or solicit business in other territories unless specifically permitted.
