Question: Can a Franchise territory be changed?
Answer:A Franchise territory cannot normally be changed without the Franchisee’s approval. However, this will depend upon the Franchise Agreement. If a change can be made then it should be disclosed in the Disclosure Document at item 17. In addition, the obligation of good faith will apply to any such potential changes. It also depends on who is requesting such as change, whether the Franchisor or the Franchisee.
