According to Stretch Zone's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Stretch Zone will not compensate franchisees for any sales made within their Development Area. This policy is explicitly stated in Item 12 of the FDD, which addresses territory rights and restrictions. This means that even if Stretch Zone or its affiliates make sales within a franchisee's Development Area through alternate methods of distribution, the franchisee will not receive any compensation for those sales.

This lack of compensation extends to sales made through various channels, including the internet or other methods of distribution that Stretch Zone might employ. While Stretch Zone does not currently use alternate methods of distribution within the Development Area under the Principal Trademark, the Area Development Agreement does not limit their ability to do so in the future. This creates a potential risk for franchisees, as Stretch Zone could implement such methods without providing compensation.

Prospective franchisees should be aware that this policy could impact their revenue potential, especially if Stretch Zone decides to expand its distribution methods within the Development Area. It is important to consider this factor when evaluating the overall financial viability of a Stretch Zone franchise and to discuss with Stretch Zone what their plans are for alternate methods of distribution and how those plans might impact a franchisee's business.
