Chocolate_Bash Franchise · 2024 FDDAnswer from 2024 FDD Document
Your franchise agreement will specify a territory, which will be determined by us. Your territory will have a population of approximately 50,000-100,000 Population Base. Although the areas will be defined by population base, there will be geographic, state or county lines that actually document the areas that will constitute territories. Other factors to determine the specific territory will include: average household income (or other wealth indicators), population density, existence of competition, capabilities of the buyer, etc. The territory area will be determined for each franchisee at the time of the signing of the franchise agreement and will most likely have the location as the epicenter of the territory boundaries.
