What This Means (2025 FDD)
Based on the 2025 Spray Net Franchise Disclosure Document, the document does not explicitly state whether Spray Net can make improvements to a franchisee's site in the event of a default. However, the FDD does state that in the event of a closure or termination of the franchise agreement, Spray-Net will determine the appropriate steps and limits with rights of access to the Spray-Network. The Spray-Network is Spray Net's proprietary software.
While the FDD does not directly address site improvements upon default, it does mention that Spray Net may provide franchisees with information regarding new products, services, suppliers, or updated methods of doing business. Additionally, Spray Net retains the right to change, improve, further develop, or otherwise modify the System (which includes the methods, information, procedures, and theories that make up the total System) as it deems appropriate.
A prospective franchisee should clarify with Spray Net what specific actions the franchisor can take regarding the physical site or premises in the event of a franchisee default or termination. Understanding the franchisor's rights and obligations in such a scenario is crucial for assessing the potential risks and liabilities associated with the franchise agreement.
