Bill overview
This bill, S 2920, aims to strengthen protections for hospitality franchisees in New Jersey. It defines ‘hospitality franchise’ and establishes rules regarding franchisor actions, such as restricting franchisee employment, limiting relocation investments, preventing unfair fees, and ensuring transparency in franchise agreements. The bill also clarifies that hospitality franchises are considered ‘merchandise’ under consumer fraud laws, and it prohibits franchisors from engaging in practices that unfairly compete with franchisees or impose unreasonable burdens. It takes effect immediately and applies to new or modified franchise agreements.
