CATEGORY

Corporate Governance and Incorporation

Definition

Franchising is a business model and method of distribution in which a franchisor grants franchisees the right to operate under its brand name, business format, and operational systems in exchange for franchise fees, royalties, and adherence to franchisor standards and guidelines. Franchising allows companies to expand rapidly and cost-effectively by leveraging the entrepreneurial spirit, local knowledge, and financial resources of franchisees to establish and grow franchise outlets or locations. Franchising offers entrepreneurs the opportunity to own and operate their own businesses with the support, brand recognition, and proven systems of established franchisors.
