Where in the Mr. Sandless franchise agreement can I find information about sale or assignment?

Based on the 2025 Mr. Sandless Franchise Disclosure Document, Section 3.5 of the franchise agreement addresses successors, assigns, and affiliates. It states that all of the franchisor's rights and powers, as well as all of the franchisee's obligations, are binding on the franchisee's successors, assigns, and affiliated persons or entities as if they had duly executed the agreement.

This clause ensures that if the franchisee sells or assigns the Mr. Sandless franchise to another party, that new party is bound by the original franchise agreement. It also extends the obligations to affiliated persons or entities, which could include family members or business partners involved in the franchise. This provision protects Mr. Sandless by ensuring that the standards and obligations of the franchise system are maintained even if the ownership changes.

For a prospective Mr. Sandless franchisee, this means that if they plan to sell their franchise in the future, the terms of the original agreement will continue to apply to the new owner. It is important to understand all the terms and conditions of the franchise agreement before signing, as these will be binding on any future owners or affiliates. Franchisees should seek legal counsel to fully understand the implications of this clause and how it may affect their ability to sell or transfer the franchise.
