The Franchise Purchase Agreement is a foundational document used when establishing a new franchise relationship in Nigeria. It serves as the primary contract between a franchisor granting business rights and a franchisee purchasing those rights. Given Nigeria's evolving commercial landscape and the absence of specific franchise legislation, this agreement must comprehensively address all aspects of the franchise relationship while complying with general commercial law principles. The document typically includes detailed provisions for initial purchase terms, ongoing operational requirements, quality control measures, intellectual property rights, territory definitions, and termination conditions. It should be tailored to meet specific business model requirements while ensuring compliance with Nigerian regulatory requirements, including those under CAMA 2020, competition laws, and intellectual property protection frameworks.
