Can Craters & Freighters reject marketing and advertising materials proposed by a franchisee?

According to Craters & Freighters' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Craters & Freighters has the authority to review and either approve or reject marketing and advertising materials proposed by a franchisee. This applies specifically to materials related to the franchised business.

This means that while franchisees have the option to develop their own advertising media, they must ensure it aligns with the brand's standards. Craters & Freighters maintains control over brand image and consistency by requiring prior written approval of all advertising materials. This is a fairly standard practice in franchising, intended to protect the overall brand reputation.

It is important for prospective franchisees to understand these requirements and factor in the time needed for approval when planning marketing activities. Franchisees should also familiarize themselves with the specific branding and system standards to minimize the risk of rejection and ensure their marketing efforts are effective and compliant.
