What This Means (2025 FDD)

According to Craters & Freighters' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees are required to operate a warehouse within their premises. The warehouse must be necessary for the operation of the franchised business. Failure to operate a warehouse is considered a breach of the franchise agreement.

Specifically, if a Craters & Freighters franchisee fails or refuses to operate a warehouse within the premises that is necessary for the operation of the franchised business, it constitutes an event of default under the agreement.

This requirement ensures that franchisees have the necessary infrastructure to provide crating, packaging, shipping, receiving, delivery, storage, transportation, logistics services, and freight forwarding services. Maintaining a warehouse allows franchisees to meet the standards and specifications set by Craters & Freighters for quality, design, appearance, function, and performance.
