Surely the franchise agreement would prohibit such an action?
- voisin 3y agoI am not sure such a clause would be upheld in a scenario where the franchisor blatantly acts in bad faith outside of industry norms to fleece the franchisee. There is a reasonable expectation of good faith.

- krisoft 3y agoIt's probably not even that. As a franchise you are under the thumb of the big corporation. They have a lot more money, and a lot more leverage to break you if you start suing them. They can probably inspect your premises, find 200 violations normally overlooked and then suspend your right to use their branding or suppliers. Sure you might win eventually, maybe in court. And then maybe you can sue them that the inspection happened in retaliation, but do you really want to risk that?
