FRANCHISING [6 records]

Record 1 2016-03-07

English

Subject field(s)
  • Commercial Law
OBS

Disclosure legislation, which approximately 14 U. S. states have enacted, makes it easier for a prospective franchisee to find out what he needs to know. It requires that a company engaged in franchising register itself, file a prospectus on which certain material facts about the company are revealed, and make this prospectus available to people interested in becoming franchisees.

... Volunteer and cooperative groups are normally formed by a number of operators to provide a purchasing or marketing agency. Its members are usually charged a small fee based on their purchases. It is similar to franchising in that they use the same name or business mark and also supply the same purchasing and advertising economies. The main differences are that it lacks strict control to quality and it does not maintain continuing assistance. An example of this type is your hardware stores.

(...) [an] ingredient which is usually required for success in franchising(...) this rate of return, of course should be higher than one can expect from a secure investment, such as a G. I. C. The rate of return should be higher because the franchisee's investment is at greater risk. I think in today's high interest rates, you should be looking at a rate of 20% or more.
