What law governs fair and reasonable pricing for Dryject franchisees?

According to the 2025 Dryject FDD, for franchisees operating in Washington, any provision in the franchise agreement that requires the franchisee to purchase or rent any product or service for more than a fair and reasonable price is unlawful under RCW 19.100.180(2)(d). This means Dryject cannot force franchisees in Washington to overpay for products or services they need to run their business.

This protection ensures that Dryject franchisees in Washington are not subjected to price gouging or unfair pricing practices by Dryject. The law aims to create a level playing field where franchisees can obtain necessary supplies and services at competitive market rates, contributing to the overall financial health and sustainability of their franchise operations.

It is important for prospective Dryject franchisees in Washington to understand this protection and to carefully review the franchise agreement for any clauses that might conflict with this provision. If a franchisee believes they are being charged unfairly high prices, they may have legal recourse under Washington law.
