International Franchising is a common method of expanding and growing a business globally. In return for a management fee a franchisor will grant a licence, distribution agreement or agency arrangement to an overseas franchisee. The franchisor in turn, will provide a commercial support package to help them operate that business, normally consisting of permission to use the franchise brand, processes, training and support.
“Business format franchising is the granting of a license by one person (the franchisor) to another (the franchisee), which entitles the franchisee to trade as their own business under the brand of the franchisor, following a proven business model. The franchisee is provided with the rights and necessary support to run the business in the correct way, while adhering to the agreed rights and obligations”. – British Franchise Association
