What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to DryJect's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees are obligated to adhere to specific requirements regarding equipment, signs, furnishings, and operating supplies. DryJect may provide franchisees with specifications for the brands and types of equipment and exterior and interior signs for any DryJect offices and/or vehicles, which the franchisee must purchase at their own expense. These specifications may include minimum standards for design, appearance, size, and other restrictions. Franchisees can purchase or lease original and replacement equipment and signage from any source approved by DryJect.
If a franchisee proposes to purchase or lease any equipment or signage not already approved by DryJect, they must notify DryJect in writing and provide sufficient specifications, photographs, drawings, or samples for DryJect to determine if the item meets their standards. DryJect will then advise the franchisee within a reasonable time whether the proposed item meets the required specifications. Franchisees must comply with all equipment specifications outlined in the Franchise Agreement and the Operations Manual.
Furthermore, DryJect franchisees are responsible for maintaining the condition and appearance of their business premises, equipment, and vehicles in accordance with DryJect's System Standards. This includes performing necessary maintenance to uphold the image and efficient operation of the franchised business, such as adding new or improved equipment or parts, replacing worn or obsolete items, and repairing the interior and exterior of offices, trucks, and display booths. If DryJect determines that the repair or appearance of the premises, vehicles, equipment, or signs does not meet System Standards, they will notify the franchisee, specifying the corrective actions needed. The franchisee must then initiate and continue a program to address the deficiencies promptly.
