Does Care Plus Medical Ucc franchisees have the right to relocate their business?

The 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document does not explicitly state whether a Care Plus Medical Ucc franchisee has the right to relocate their business during the franchise term. However, the FDD does state that the franchisee must operate their Care Plus Medical business at the location specified in the agreement for the entire term, suggesting relocation may not be permitted without franchisor approval.

Section 6.1 outlines the process for determining the initial location, requiring franchisee to submit a proposed location to Care Plus Medical Ucc for acceptance. Once accepted, the location is documented in a Location Acceptance Letter. This initial site selection process underscores the importance of the original location to the franchise agreement.

Given the lack of explicit information regarding relocation rights, it is important that prospective Care Plus Medical Ucc franchisees should seek clarification from the franchisor regarding the possibility of relocation during the franchise term, the conditions under which relocation might be considered, and any associated costs or requirements.
