In the Bath Tune Up addendum, what is the defined term for the geographic area granted to the franchisee?

According to Bath Tune Up's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the geographic area granted to the franchisee is referred to as the "Territory".

Bath Tune Up grants franchisees the right to operate within a defined Territory. According to the FDD, a customer is considered to be located in the franchisee's Territory if the location where the Bath Tune Up services will be performed is within that Territory. This definition is important for determining which franchisee is entitled to revenue from a particular job.

Furthermore, the FDD specifies that Bath Tune Up will not establish or franchise any other Bath Improvements business using the System and Marks within the franchisee's Territory during the term of the agreement, with some exceptions. These exceptions include agreements with Key Accounts, which may involve performance in multiple territories, and opportunities for joint marketing efforts with other franchisees. Franchisees should be aware of these potential overlaps and limitations to their exclusive rights within their Territory.

Additionally, franchisees are responsible for ensuring that they do not make sales in other franchisees' territories and must refer customers to the appropriate franchisee if they are located in another franchisee's contracted territory. This is to protect the goodwill of the Bath Tune Up brand and the Marks. Franchisees are not compensated for these referrals, highlighting the importance of respecting territorial boundaries within the Bath Tune Up franchise system.
