What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Focalpoint Coaching's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Focalpoint Coaching retains the right to grant others the right to operate Focalpoint Franchised Businesses at "Non-Traditional Sites" both within and outside a franchisee's territory.
The FDD defines "Non-Traditional Sites" as locations that have their own customer traffic flow, independent of the surrounding area. Examples of these sites include military bases, major industrial or office complexes, hotels, hospitals, and school campuses.
This means that even within a franchisee's designated territory, Focalpoint Coaching can authorize other Focalpoint Coaching franchises to operate at these specific types of locations. This could potentially lead to increased competition for the franchisee within their own territory, as these non-traditional sites could draw customers away from the franchisee's primary business location. Prospective franchisees should consider the potential impact of these non-traditional sites on their business and revenue projections.
