For an Aerus franchisee that is a business entity, what is required of the individual executing the Franchise Agreement?

According to Aerus's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, if the franchisee is a business entity, the individual executing the Franchise Agreement on behalf of the entity must meet specific requirements. This individual must be duly authorized to execute the agreement, possessing the appropriate authority to legally bind the franchisee to the terms outlined in the agreement.

Furthermore, the individual must be an active, full-time participant in the daily operations of the Aerus Franchised Business. This requirement ensures that the person signing the agreement is not merely a figurehead but is actively involved in managing and running the business. This active participation helps to ensure that the franchisee is committed to the success of the business and is knowledgeable about its operations.

These stipulations are in place to protect Aerus and ensure that the franchisee is a legitimate and actively managed business. By requiring the individual executing the agreement to be authorized and actively involved, Aerus aims to maintain the integrity and operational standards of its franchise system. This requirement is fairly standard in the franchise industry, as franchisors want to ensure that franchisees are committed to the business and have the authority to make decisions on behalf of the business entity.
