Is the franchisor able to decide not to renew or completely end my franchise agreement?
This will vary, depending on what is stated in your franchise agreement. After the amount of time that the franchise agreement was signed for, there is a period of negotiation between the franchisor and franchisee to decide whether or not the agreement is extended. At this time, the franchisor may terminate the contract for essentially any reason they choose. If the franchisor would like to terminate the agreement within the time period originally stated in the contract they must have sufficient reason and evidence that the franchisee was not meeting standards of the parent company.
