Franchise disclosure is a legal requirement that provides prospective franchisees with essential information about costs, obligations, and the franchisor’s obligations. It helps buyers compare opportunities, assess risk, and make informed decisions before signing an agreement. In North Carolina, disclosures must include financial performance representations, initial fees, ongoing royalties, training, and obligations. They allow franchisees to understand ongoing costs and support levels, enabling a realistic evaluation of profitability and return on investment.
A Franchise Agreement is the contract that governs the relationship, detailing rights, duties, fees, and territory. It defines how the brand is used, what support is provided, and the consequences of noncompliance. A well-drafted agreement reduces ambiguity and future disputes.
