What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Spray Net's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees must execute a general release to renew their franchise agreement. In addition to the general release, franchisees must meet several other requirements to renew their agreement.
The requirements include not having any uncured material defaults under the existing Franchise Agreement, including any monetary defaults. Franchisees must also execute Spray Net's then-current franchise agreement, which may contain materially different terms and conditions than the original agreement. A renewal fee of $10,000 is also required.
Furthermore, franchisees must complete Spray Net's then-current refresher training course, participate in and support the operational procedures recommended or provided by Spray Net, and re-image, renovate, refurbish, and modernize the Approved Vehicles and Franchised Business. These conditions ensure that franchisees remain compliant with Spray Net's standards and practices upon renewal.
