What documents referring to the Engel & Volkers system must the franchisee immediately cease using?

According to Engel & Volkers' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, upon termination of the Franchise Agreement, franchisees must immediately stop using any documents referring to the Engel & Volkers system. This includes advertising texts, advertising materials, printed matter, and letterheads.

This requirement ensures that franchisees no longer represent themselves as part of the Engel & Volkers brand after the agreement ends. By ceasing the use of these documents, the franchisee avoids any potential confusion among customers and maintains the integrity of the Engel & Volkers brand.

This provision is standard in franchise agreements to protect the franchisor's brand identity and prevent unauthorized use of its marketing materials and intellectual property by former franchisees. Franchisees should be aware of this obligation and plan accordingly to remove all Engel & Volkers-related materials upon termination or expiration of the agreement.
