A franchise is a solution for people who want to own and operate their own business, but prefer working under an established brand and benefiting from the experience and know-how of the franchisor.

Franchises can offer you, the franchisee, and a complete system of doing business— everything from supplying a trademark and logo, to assistance with business set up, personnel training, product supply and advertising.

Additionally, franchising can be a wonderful medium to expand your business enterprise allowing you to enter, at a lower risk, targeted market areas.
