Franchise types – Single & Multi-Unit• Single-unit (direct-unit) franchise

• Rights to open & operate ONE franchise unit. Simplest & most common format. Possible to purchase additional single-unit franchises, thus a multiple / single-unit

• Multi-unit franchise• Area development

• Right / obligation to open & develop more than one unit, during a specific time, within a defined territory

• Master franchise (sub-franchising)• Additional to above - right to grant sub-franchises within the territory. Takes over

certain franchisor tasks, duties &benefits, such as support &training. Receives portion fees &royalties

• Area representative• Multi-unit hybrid. Territorial right to grant & service unit franchisees in the territory.

No direct unit franchisee contract (direct with franchisor). Receives portion of the initial & ongoing fees

Franchise alternatives• Distributorship

• Contractual relationship with supplier, to buy & sells. Familiar with local markets & customers. May do business with many companies, more than just the supplier/producer. May not receive contractual support & training from the supplier/producer like franchisees

• Licensing• Licensee pays for the rights to use a particular trademark, without

the same significant control over the operations. Licensors mainly interested in royalties and supervising the use of the license rather than influencing the operations of the business
