Who's Dryject Manual terms are controlling in the event of a dispute?

According to Dryject's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, in the event of a dispute regarding the contents of the Dryject Manual, the terms of the master copies maintained by Dryject at its principal office will be controlling. This means that if there is any disagreement about what is written in the manual, the version that Dryject keeps at its headquarters is the official and legally binding version.

For a prospective franchisee, this is important because it clarifies that Dryject has the final say on the contents of the manual. Franchisees must ensure their manuals are kept current with Dryject's master copy to avoid disputes. This also highlights the importance of carefully reviewing any manual updates or revisions provided by Dryject.

This type of clause is relatively standard in franchising, as franchisors need to maintain consistency across all franchise locations. By retaining control over the master copy of the manual, Dryject can ensure uniform standards and procedures are followed throughout the Dryject franchise system. Franchisees should be aware of this provision and understand that they are responsible for adhering to the most current version of the manual as maintained by Dryject.
