What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Spray Net's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Spray Net does not anticipate refusing a franchisee's request for relocation unless the proposed new site is unsuitable for the franchise's operational base. This includes ensuring adequate parking for all approved vehicles that meet Spray Net's system standards.
If a franchisee can no longer use their current location due to circumstances beyond their control, such as unreasonable lease terms or the destruction of the premises, Spray Net will not unreasonably withhold written consent to relocate. This suggests that Spray Net aims to be accommodating in situations where relocation is necessary due to external factors.
This policy provides some assurance to franchisees that they will not be arbitrarily denied the ability to relocate if their current location becomes untenable. However, the franchisee should still ensure that any proposed relocation site meets Spray Net's standards for operational suitability to avoid potential issues.
