What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Spray Net's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, a 'Qualified Single-Family Household' is defined as one with an annual household income exceeding $60,000. A base territory generally includes a geographic area with approximately 75,000 such households. This definition is important for prospective franchisees as it determines the potential customer base within their designated territory.
Spray Net determines the number of qualified households based on raw data, without considering demographics or age. This means that the focus is purely on income level when assessing the viability of a territory. Franchisees should understand that while a base territory contains approximately 75,000 qualified households, this number is an estimate and may vary based on the specific geographic area.
Prospective Spray Net franchisees have the option to increase the size of their territory by purchasing additional qualified single-family households or additional territories, subject to availability, Spray Net's approval, and payment of additional initial franchise fees. Each additional designated territory also includes approximately 75,000 qualified single-family households. This allows franchisees to expand their potential market reach, but it also increases their local marketing expenditure. Therefore, franchisees need to carefully evaluate the costs and benefits of expanding their territory based on their business goals and financial resources.
