Under what condition will a Cinnaholic Franchise Territory be limited to only the approved site?

According to Cinnaholic's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, a franchisee's territory may be limited to only the approved site of the bakery if the location is considered non-traditional. These non-traditional locations include sites such as airports, malls, high-rise buildings, and business or industrial complexes. In these instances, the Franchise Territory will not extend beyond the physical location of the Cinnaholic bakery itself.

This limited territory means that Cinnaholic franchisees operating in non-traditional locations will not have any exclusive rights to the surrounding area. They may face direct competition from other Cinnaholic outlets or other brands, even within the same building or complex. This is a significant consideration for prospective franchisees, as it could impact their potential customer base and revenue.

For example, a Cinnaholic franchise located in an airport terminal would only have a territory consisting of its specific location within the airport. Cinnaholic, or another franchisee, could open another location elsewhere in the airport without violating the agreement. This is different from a standard territory, which may include an area 1.5 miles around the bakery. Franchisees should carefully consider the implications of a limited territory on their business prospects and discuss location options with Cinnaholic during the negotiation process.
