What is the typical length of the franchise agreement for a Brightstar Care franchise?

According to Brightstar Care's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the franchise agreements typically last for ten years. This means that a franchisee can expect to operate their Brightstar Care business under the terms of the franchise agreement for a decade.

During this ten-year term, Brightstar Care franchisees are granted a non-exclusive right to operate a medical staffing and home medical care services business using Brightstar Care's trademarks and systems. Brightstar Care also provides ongoing marketing and consulting services throughout the contract term. These services are considered part of Brightstar Care's single performance obligation of providing the franchise license.

At the end of the initial ten-year term, Brightstar Care franchise agreements include renewal options, allowing franchisees to extend their agreement, subject to certain conditions and the payment of a renewal fee. This is a fairly standard term length in the franchise industry, providing franchisees with a substantial period to build their business while also allowing Brightstar Care to maintain brand standards and evolve the franchise system over time.
