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.

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.

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.

Operating an ice cream truck is a small business, just like owning a store or restaurant. You need proper licenses, permits, and insurance to start selling legally. The start-up costs can also be higher than you think, so it is crucial to have a solid business plan before diving in.

Ice cream shops typically enjoy healthy profit margins, ranging from 12% to 30%, depending on the business model and how well costs are controlled.
