Does an increase in population affect a Christian Brothers Automotive franchisee's rights to their Territory?

According to Christian Brothers Automotive's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, an increase in population does not affect a franchisee's rights to their territory. The Franchise Agreement grants franchisees an exclusive geographic area.

The territory size is approximated as a circle with a 3-mile radius around the location, but the exact territory is defined in Exhibit A of the Franchise Agreement. The shape and square footage can vary based on different factors.

Christian Brothers Automotive will not operate or grant franchises for similar businesses within a franchisee's territory. Franchisees cannot operate outside their territory and must sell all products and services through their location. While franchisees can solicit customers outside their territory, they cannot solicit within another franchisee's territory. If the Franchise Agreement is terminated, the franchisee loses all rights to their territory.
