What qualifications must Stretch Zone Franchised Outlet Members meet to participate in the DMA Cooperative?

According to Stretch Zone's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, to qualify for the DMA Cooperative, Franchised Outlet Members must meet specific criteria. First, they must be active Franchisees in good standing under a Franchise Agreement with Stretch Zone. This means they must have a current franchise agreement and not be in default of any terms outlined in that agreement. Second, they must be a party to a DMA Membership Agreement, which involves Stretch Zone, the DMA Cooperative, and the Member.

These qualifications ensure that all members of the DMA Cooperative are committed to the Stretch Zone brand and adhere to the company's standards. By requiring members to be in good standing and party to a specific agreement, Stretch Zone aims to maintain a cohesive and compliant group focused on promoting the brand within their designated marketing area.

These requirements are typical in franchise systems to ensure brand consistency and protect the franchisor's interests. Franchisees should carefully review the terms of both the Franchise Agreement and the DMA Membership Agreement to fully understand their obligations and the conditions for maintaining membership in the DMA Cooperative. Failure to meet these qualifications could result in the termination of membership and potential repercussions on their franchise agreement.
