How does the Wisconsin Fair Dealership Law affect the Aira Fitness Franchise Agreement in Wisconsin?

According to the 2025 Aira Fitness Franchise Disclosure Document, the Wisconsin Fair Dealership Law, specifically Chapter 135 of the Wisconsin Statutes, takes precedence over any conflicting provisions within the Aira Fitness Franchise Agreement or Contract. This means that if any part of the franchise agreement clashes with the Wisconsin Fair Dealership Law, the state law will govern the relationship between Aira Fitness and the franchisee in Wisconsin.

This protection extends to both the standard Franchise Agreement and the Multi-Unit Development Agreement. Aira Fitness includes an addendum to both agreements for the state of Wisconsin, explicitly stating the supremacy of the Wisconsin Fair Dealership Law. This ensures that franchisees operating in Wisconsin are afforded the protections and rights provided by this law, regardless of what the standard franchise agreement might state.

For a prospective Aira Fitness franchisee in Wisconsin, this is a significant safeguard. The Wisconsin Fair Dealership Law addresses various aspects of the franchise relationship, including termination, renewal, and transfer, often providing more protection to the franchisee than standard franchise agreements. Franchisees should become familiar with Chapter 135 to understand their rights and obligations under Wisconsin law, as it will directly impact their franchise relationship with Aira Fitness.
