What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Byrider's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the lease addendum specifies the permitted uses of the premises. The tenant, or franchisee, has the right to use the premises for operating a business that offers used vehicles. In addition to selling used vehicles, the franchisee can also provide financing services directly related to those vehicle sales, all operating under the Byrider name and associated trademarks.
This clause ensures that the franchisee's business activities are clearly defined and aligned with the Byrider business model. By explicitly stating that the premises can be used for both used vehicle sales and financing services, the addendum clarifies the scope of operations permitted under the lease. This prevents any ambiguity or potential disputes with the landlord regarding the types of business activities conducted on the property.
Furthermore, the lease addendum addresses signage rights, allowing the franchisee to use Byrider's standard sign and awning package to the maximum extent permitted by local authorities. The franchisee is also entitled to a panel on any pylon, monument, or directory sign for the development where the premises are located, enabling them to install a standard Byrider-approved sign, including the logo. These provisions ensure that the Byrider brand is prominently displayed, enhancing visibility and recognition for the business.
