Wing It On! does not grant franchisees an exclusive territory, meaning they may face competition from other franchisees, company-owned outlets, or alternative distribution channels.
While the franchisee operates within a defined area, this area does not guarantee exclusivity, and the franchisor retains the right to sell through various channels like the internet, direct mail, or special venues. Franchise agreements may include a “protected radius” or trade area, but this mainly applies to mobile units like food trucks and does not fully prevent overlap.
The franchisor also reserves the right to establish Special Accounts, which are large contracts that may cover areas beyond a single franchise territory, and franchisees may be given the first option to service these accounts.
