In Romania, can I exit a franchise early if the franchisor misrepresented profits in the disclosure?

In Romania
Last Updated: Jan 30, 2026
I signed a franchise agreement six months ago and the real turnover is far below what was shown in the franchisor’s presentations. I have emails and spreadsheets with the projected numbers. What legal options do I have to terminate and recover my initial fees?

Situations like this can, in principle, raise legal remedies, meaning termination/exit routes and potential claims to recover some or all initial fees, especially where sales projections or expected turnover were presented in a way that influenced your decision to sign.


However, in franchise disputes the outcome depends heavily on (i) what the franchise agreement says (disclaimers on projections, non-reliance clauses, integration clauses, limitation of liability, termination grounds, cooling-off/notice periods, penalties etc.) and (ii) the documents showing how the numbers were presented and relied upon in respect to the franchise agreement.


Should you wish, we can do a review of the above-mentioned documents and advise on the strongest practical route (negotiated exit vs. formal termination and/or a misrepresentation-type claim).
