What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Craters & Freighters FDD, Craters & Freighters will establish and maintain a stand-alone website for each franchisee, called a "Franchisee Geosite." This Geosite is separate from the main Craters & Freighters website. The Geosite will include the contact information for the franchisee's business and various customer-oriented functions relating to products and services offered by the franchisee's business.
This is a beneficial arrangement for franchisees as it provides them with an individual web presence to market their specific location and services. Customers searching online will be able to find the local franchisee's contact information and specific offerings directly, rather than going through the general Craters & Freighters website.
Craters & Freighters retains control over internet marketing and trademark usage, requiring written approval for franchisees to register domain names containing their trademarks or participate in online marketing using those trademarks. This ensures brand consistency and quality control across all online platforms. Franchisees must adhere to the terms of the Franchise Agreement and any other rules or policies set by Craters & Freighters regarding their online conduct and advertising.
