The Exclusive Representation Agreement is a crucial commercial contract used when a company (principal) wishes to appoint an exclusive representative or agent to promote and sell their products or services within a specified territory in Ireland or internationally. This agreement type is particularly important for businesses expanding their market presence through dedicated representatives while maintaining control over their brand and commercial interests. The document must comply with Irish law, including the European Communities (Commercial Agents) Regulations 1994 and relevant competition laws. It typically includes detailed provisions on exclusivity terms, territory definitions, commission structures, performance targets, and termination conditions. The agreement is essential for establishing clear boundaries of authority, protecting both parties' interests, and ensuring compliance with legal requirements regarding commercial agency relationships.
