In New York, can Dryject negotiate items covered in the Franchise Disclosure Document?

According to Dryject's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, if you are considering a Dryject franchise in New York, the franchisor has the option to negotiate terms with you. However, Dryject is not allowed to use this negotiation to convince you to accept terms that are less favorable than what is already outlined in the Franchise Disclosure Document.

This means that while there is room for discussion and potential adjustments to the franchise agreement, Dryject must ensure that the final terms offered to you are at least as beneficial as those presented in the original FDD. This provision aims to protect prospective franchisees from being pressured into accepting less advantageous conditions during negotiations.

As a prospective franchisee, you should carefully review all terms and conditions in the FDD and seek legal counsel to understand your rights and obligations. During negotiations, ensure that any changes made are documented and that you fully understand the implications of those changes. Be wary of any pressure to accept terms that seem less favorable than those initially disclosed, and remember that New York law provides this protection to ensure fairness in the franchising process.
