For Bigfoot Forestry, how are Franchise Territories not defined by a 50-mile radius described?

According to Bigfoot Forestry's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, any franchise territory not defined by a 50-mile radius is described in Part D of Attachment A. Attachment A is referenced multiple times throughout the document in relation to defining terms such as "Franchised Territory", "Development Territory", and the "Development Schedule".

For a prospective franchisee, this means that the specific details of their territory will be outlined in Attachment A of their franchise agreement. It is important to carefully review this attachment to understand the exact geographic boundaries of the territory, as it may not be a simple 50-mile radius. The franchisee should also understand how the Development Territory is defined, as it encompasses all of the individual Franchised Territories on a combined basis.

Furthermore, the franchisee should pay close attention to the Development Schedule, which outlines the timeline for opening Bigfoot Forestry Businesses within the Development Territory. The franchisee must sign a separate Franchise Agreement for each Franchise Territory. The FDD also states that the franchisee may not alter or relocate their Territory. Except as otherwise provided in Section 3.2, the franchisee may only provide Bigfoot Forestry Services at job sites located in their Territory.

In addition to the defined territory, Bigfoot Forestry franchisees should also be aware of the conditions under which they may operate outside of their territory. With prior approval from Bigfoot Forestry, a franchisee may provide services in an "Approved Open Territory", which must be adjacent to their existing territory and not already assigned to another franchisee. However, Bigfoot Forestry retains the right to revoke this approval at any time, potentially impacting the franchisee's ability to operate in that area.
