Franchise contract
Hi all
I need help clarifying the meaning of this, please.
Do you read it as saying that the negotiation for the agreement renewal needs to take place *no later* than six months before the agreement's expiry date, or *no sooner* than six months before the agreement's expiry date?
I read it as saying "no sooner" but I would have thought it would be more likely that the Franchisor (and indeed the Franchisee) would not want to leave it until the last minute, so I'm left wondering if I'm mis-understanding it.
Any thoughts, please?
Thanks!
Llegada la fecha de vencimiento del Contrato, y en el supuesto de que las Partes deseasen mantener vigente su relación comercial, éstas negociarán con una antelación no superior a seis (6) meses a la fecha de terminación del presente contrato, las condiciones de una eventual renovación del Contrato y fijar, en su caso, los términos de un nuevo acuerdo.

Yes, you are right. It does mean "no sooner than". "No superior a seis meses" means "not exceeding six months".
Here is an example that might make it a bit clearer:

“1.2. Para las mercancías que arriben al territorio aduanero nacional bajo el modo
marítimo cuyo transporte desde el país de procedencia hacia Colombia sea
considerado como trayecto corto, la declaración de importación deberá presentarse con una antelación no superior a quince (15) días calendario y no inferior a dos (2) días calendario a la llegada de las mismas”.

Personalmente interpreto que lo que se desea es que la notificación no exceda seis meses y al decir no sooner o no earlier parece indicar que se debe más bien pasar de los seis meses. Diciendo within el concepto se mantiene dentro de los seis meses. Entiendo que voy contra la corriente de las respuestas que te han dado.

I've asked the agency to ask the client, just to make sure ;-)
And thank you for your comment, and thanks also to the others who have offered suggested answers.
