Master Franchising

In master franchising, a franchisor grants a franchise in respect of a whole territory or country. The master franchisee is then responsible for recruiting sub-franchisees, and training and supporting them.

The master franchisee essentially becomes a mini-franchisor for the specified territory or country.

In exchange, the master franchisee receives a large percentage of the initial franchise fee from each sub-franchisee, and a large percentage of ongoing fees.

The master franchisee usually agrees to a development schedule, which may include owning and operating their own units.

Overseas Expansion

Master franchises are often used by franchised brands wanting to expand overseas. It saves the master franchisor the expense (and headache) of setting up an infrastructure abroad.

Partnering with a qualified overseas master franchisee also help with language and cultural differences, as well as local recruitment, suppliers, real estate, etc. It also significantly reduces risk.

If you are thinking of setting up a master franchise, or you have the opportunity to buy a franchise for a specific region, we can give you the benefit of our knowledge and experience, helping you to negotiate terms that suit you.

A great day at Barclays Eagle Labs led by Mel Alfieri for their first Women in Franchise event. Suzie McCafferty started the day with a thought-provoking run down on current hot topics in franchising and the day finished with Jen Chapman leading an inspiring neuroscience session

What is your business worth? Always an interesting topic, there are so many variables. Last week's "First Friday" led by Stephen & Jim from proved just that. Their valuation tool that they demonstrated proved this and was most certainly food for thought
