Does the Dryject franchise agreement allow for the acquisition and development of new marks after the agreement date?

According to the 2025 Dryject Franchise Disclosure Document, Dryject may acquire and develop new marks after the franchise agreement date. Specifically, Dryject retains the right to develop new trademarks that are not designated as Licensed Rights for use with similar or different franchise systems within a franchisee's designated territory. This means that while a franchisee has the right to operate a DryJect business and use the Licensed Rights in their designated territory, Dryject can introduce new brands or systems, even within that same territory.

This reservation of rights by Dryject does not grant franchisees any automatic rights to acquire additional franchises within their existing territory or any adjacent territories. This clause ensures Dryject maintains flexibility in expanding its business and exploring new opportunities, potentially through different brands or systems, without being restricted by existing franchise agreements.

For a prospective Dryject franchisee, this means that while they are granted a specific territory for the DryJect brand, Dryject could introduce other related or even competitive services under different trademarks within that same area. It is important for potential franchisees to understand this provision and consider how it might affect their business if Dryject decides to launch a new brand or service in their territory. This clause highlights the importance of a thorough understanding of the franchise agreement and potential competitive factors.
