What This Means (2025 FDD)
Based on the 2025 Aerus Franchise Disclosure Document, the franchisee is required to open the franchised business at an Approved Location no later than the Opening Date, if it is not already an existing Aerus business. Aerus will identify any modifications or improvements to the premises, which the franchisee must make at their own expense before the Opening Date or within a designated time period after it.
Aerus franchisees are restricted from selling products from any physical location other than the Approved Location. This restriction ensures that all sales activities are conducted through authorized channels and locations, maintaining brand consistency and quality control. The franchisee must also ensure that only authorized representatives of the franchisee conduct sales, further reinforcing the controlled sales environment.
Aerus retains significant control over where its products are sold and how the business is operated. This control is exercised to maintain the integrity of the Aerus brand and the consistency of the customer experience. Franchisees must adhere to these location restrictions and operational guidelines to remain in compliance with the franchise agreement.
