What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Spray Net's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, a franchisee is authorized to operate their Spray Net business within a designated territory. This territory is specifically defined in Section 3 of the Data Sheet, which is part of the franchise agreement. The franchisee's rights to operate and offer approved services are limited to homes located within this designated territory.
Spray Net may request a franchisee to provide services outside of their designated territory under certain circumstances. If the franchisee agrees to do so, Spray Net will reimburse the franchisee for all actual costs incurred, provided that the franchisee submits receipts for these costs.
Spray Net also agrees not to establish or operate another business utilizing the Spray Net system and proprietary marks within the franchisee's designated territory, as long as the franchisee remains in compliance with the franchise agreement. However, Spray Net retains the right to offer ancillary services within the franchisee's territory, either directly or by authorizing another franchisee or third party, without any remuneration to the original franchisee.
