What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to Fly To Fit's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, when a franchise agreement terminates or expires, the franchisee is responsible for de-identifying the location within 30 days. This de-identification process requires the franchisee to remove all elements that identify the location as a Fly To Fit business.
Specifically, the franchisee must remove the brand's Marks, signage, and any trade dress associated with Fly To Fit. This ensures that the location no longer represents or appears to be associated with the Fly To Fit brand. The de-identification must be completed to the satisfaction of Fly To Fit.
If the franchisee fails to de-identify the location within the specified 30-day period, Fly To Fit has the right to enter the location and complete the de-identification process themselves. In such cases, the franchisee will not be able to claim trespass or demand compensation for any assets removed or altered during the de-identification process, nor for any damages caused by Fly To Fit.
