The Distribution License Agreement is a critical commercial contract used when a business (licensor) wishes to grant another entity (distributor) the right to distribute its products or services in specific territories under Belgian law. This agreement type is particularly important in the Belgian and broader EU market, where distribution relationships are heavily regulated. The document addresses key aspects required by Belgian commercial law and EU regulations, including competition law compliance, vertical agreement requirements, and commercial agency provisions. It sets out detailed terms covering distribution rights, territory limitations, performance requirements, quality standards, and intellectual property usage. The agreement is essential for businesses expanding their distribution networks while maintaining control over their products and brand reputation, particularly in regulated markets or where specialized distribution channels are required.
