What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to the 2024 Endless Summer Sweets Franchise Disclosure Document, Endless Summer Sweets or its designee has the right to enter the leased premises under specific circumstances related to the termination of the Franchise Agreement or the Lease. Specifically, this occurs upon the expiration or termination of the Franchise Agreement or the Lease, or the termination of the franchisee's right of possession of the leased premises.
In such cases, Endless Summer Sweets or its designee may enter the premises to remove signs and other materials bearing Endless Summer Sweets' brand name, trademarks, and commercial symbols. However, this right is conditional. Endless Summer Sweets must provide reasonable prior notice to the landlord before entering the premises for this purpose.
Furthermore, Endless Summer Sweets is liable to the landlord for any damages caused by Endless Summer Sweets or its designee during the removal of these items. This provision ensures that while Endless Summer Sweets retains the right to protect its brand identity by removing its signage and trademarks, it must do so responsibly and bear the costs of any damage caused during the process.
