Territory — what the FDD says (Item 12)

Exclusive territory — classified from Item 12, p.23 of the brand's FDD

Under this brand's Item 12 rule, the franchisor grants an exclusive territory: while your agreement runs, the franchisor may not place another franchisee — or operate a competing company unit — inside your territory's boundaries (subject to the carve-outs in the FDD). Areas inside an existing franchisee's territory are therefore not available to a new buyer.

The FDD's own words (Item 12): “this franchisor grants an exclusive territory as described in its FDD. We have operated AeroWest businesses and offered franchises for those business since December 1983. The AeroWest Business Franchise Each AeroWest business is assigned a specified geographic area (“Route”) in”
