Does Golden Krust Caribbean Restaurant grant exclusive territories to its franchisees?

You will not receive an exclusive territory. You may face competition from other franchisees, from outlets that we own, or from other channels of distribution or competitive brands that we control.

The franchise is granted to you for a specific location only that first must be approved by us. We will consider multiple factors in approving a restaurant location. We do not grant exclusive territories. You are not granted options, rights of first refusal or similar rights to acquire additional franchises within a territory or contiguous territories. You may not operate the Restaurant at any other site without our prior written consent. If we consent to the Restaurant's relocation, we may charge you for the reasonable costs and expenses we incur in connection with the relocation. There are no restrictions as to where you solicit or accept orders. You may not, without prior approval by us, use other channels of distribution, such as the internet, to make sales outside your territory.

We (and our affiliates) reserve all rights that are not expressly granted to you under the Franchise Agreement. Among other things, we and our affiliates have the sole right to do any or all of the following (notwithstanding proximity to your Restaurant): (a) to establish and grant to other franchisees the right to establish, Traditional Golden Krust Restaurants anywhere other than your site on such terms and conditions we deem appropriate; and (b) to sell products identified by the Marks through distribution channels other than Traditional Golden Krust Restaurant (including, but not limited to, institutional customers of Golden Krust such as schools, prisons, club stores, gas stations, convenience stores and/or grocery stores). If we (or our affiliates) solicit or accept orders inside your territory, then we have no obligation to compensate you.

We have not established and do not intend to establish other franchises or Company-owned bakeries selling similar products or services under a different trademark. However, neither we nor our affiliates are restricted from establishing other franchises or company owned outlets or other channels of distribution selling or leasing similar products or services under a different trademark.
