Who can use this Franchise Agreement?

Any business owner who wants to expand their business can use this franchise agreement.

What is this Franchise Agreement for?

The franchise agreement sets out the basis on which the franchisor  authorises the franchisee to operate the business using the franchisor’s name, products and brand.  The franchise agreement is suitable as a template for a wide range of businesses – from a  restaurant to a particular service to the public, such as valeting cars.

What are the main issues?

Financial arrangements: these will usually include a basic franchise fee to be paid in advance and then an annual service fee.  Where products are bought from the franchisor, the pricing of these will also be covered.

Franchise details. The agreement is likely to have schedules that describe in detail the nature of the franchise and the obligations of the franchisee to adopt the brand and operating model.  it will also specify the support and services that the franchisor will provide.

Term & Termination.  The initial length of the franchise and renewal arrangements will be set out. Also, the right of each party to terminate and the consequences of termination. These can be quite complicated.

Sale of franchise. Sometimes the franchisee is able to sell the business to a new franchisee and this, again, need some detailed consideration.
