FAQ

In a franchise agreement, a non-competition restriction is a type of a “restrictive covenant”. It aims to prevent a franchisee from setting up, operating or being otherwise involved in a business that is in competition with the franchise.

Ice cream franchises can be profitable for business owners depending on the market, customer demographics, and competition present in the area.

If the franchisor does not limit the territory where each franchisee can sell, the franchisor and other franchisees may compete with you for the same customers by establishing their own outlets or selling through the internet, catalogs or telemarketing.

The California courts have consistently held that this law means what it says – that non-compete provisions are not enforceable. The only exceptions are where the provision is in a contract for the sale of a business or the sale or dissolution of a partnership or limited liability company.

A protected territory ensures that the franchisor will not open another franchise or sell a franchise territory within a specific area around the franchisee's location.

Running an ice cream business can be as sweet as the treats you sell, but it also comes with its share of risks. From equipment breakdowns to potential customer injuries, your ice cream shop could face a variety of unexpected challenges. That's where insurance cover for ice cream vans comes into play.

The Unfair Competition Law of California prohibits false advertising and illegal business practices. The law is also known as the state's UCL. The law describes “unfair competition” as any unlawful, unfair, or fraudulent business act or practice, or false, deceptive, or misleading advertising.
