If a Principal of a Crave franchise is married, what agreement must their spouse execute?

According to Crave's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, if a principal of a Crave franchise is married, their spouse must execute a Spouse Confidentiality and Non-Compete Agreement. This requirement ensures that the confidential information crucial to Crave's operations is protected, as the spouse may have access to this information.

The agreement acknowledges that the spouse, referred to as the Covenantor, may gain access to confidential information, knowledge, know-how, techniques, contents of the Crave operations manual, and other materials related to the Crave system. This information provides economic advantages to Crave and its franchisees. The franchisee recognizes the importance of restricting the use, access, and dissemination of this confidential information and agrees to obtain a written agreement from the spouse to protect it and the system against unfair competition.

The document emphasizes that the spouse's execution of the Confidentiality and Non-Compete Agreement is a condition for granting the franchise rights to the franchisee. Crave would not grant these rights without this agreement. This requirement is in consideration of the mutual covenants and obligations outlined in the agreement, ensuring both parties are committed to protecting Crave's interests.
