Has Dryject signed any agreements containing confidentiality clauses with current or former franchisees during the last three fiscal years?

According to Dryject's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Dryject's franchise agreements include confidentiality clauses that prevent both current and former franchisees from disclosing proprietary, confidential, and trade secret information about the Dryject system. Furthermore, during the last three fiscal years, Dryject has entered into other types of agreements, such as settlement agreements, that also contained confidentiality clauses with current or former franchisees.

This information is relevant for prospective franchisees as it indicates that there may be limitations on what former franchisees can share about their experiences with Dryject. While you are encouraged to speak with current and former franchisees as part of your due diligence, it is important to recognize that some former franchisees may be restricted from openly discussing their experiences due to these confidentiality agreements.

This practice is relatively common in franchising, as franchisors often seek to protect their proprietary information and maintain control over brand reputation. However, it underscores the importance of gathering information from a variety of sources and perspectives when evaluating a franchise opportunity. Prospective franchisees should consider asking Dryject for clarification on the scope and nature of these confidentiality agreements to better understand any potential limitations on franchisee communications.
