Franchise agreement
templateCovers a franchisor licensing a franchisee to operate under its brand, trademarks, and business system, in exchange for fees and ongoing royalties. Franchising is one of the most heavily regulated areas of business law in both the US and Canada — most jurisdictions require a detailed pre-sale disclosure document beyond this agreement itself.
Good fit for
- +An established business wanting to formalize letting someone else operate under its brand and system
Not ideal for
- −Skipping your jurisdiction's franchise disclosure requirements (e.g. an FDD in the US) — franchising has real, specific regulatory requirements beyond a generic agreement, and needs specialized legal review before offering franchises
- −A simple licensing deal without an ongoing operational system and brand standards — use the IP or trademark licensing agreement instead

Before you start. Nomos provides general information and document templates. It isn't a law firm, doesn't give legal advice, and nothing here tells you what to do in your own situation. Unless a template shows a "Reviewed by" badge, it hasn't been reviewed by a lawyer. Have a licensed attorney in your jurisdiction review any document before you rely on or sign it.
