• Contractual Concerns
1. That the franchisor was within its contractual and legal rights to
open the outlet or alternative method of distribution;
2. That the franchisee’s business is not located in the same trading area
as the allegedly encroaching location;
4. That the franchisee itself had sought to obtain the very location
which it now contends should never have been established; and
5. That the franchisee’s business is profitable, and has not been harmed
by the franchisor’s actions.
