Franchising
Franchising is nearly as old as America itself. Classic names from the distant past provided us with autos, food, and hotels. But within the past 30 years, nearly all industry segments have used the franchise business model to develop, make, market, or fulfill their good or service. And while franchising may have arguably started in the US, the franchise business model today is used widely throughout the world.
Our professionals have spent over 50 years helping franchisors, multi-unit franchisees, and franchisees develop and manage change, disputes, transitions, and transactions. Some of the initial comments we frequently hear include, “We have an idea we’d like to explore.” “We’re stuck”. “We’ve hit a wall”. “That damaged my business.” “Is this the right time for me to sell (or buy)?” “How do I buy (or sell) this business?” “Can you help me buy (or sell) this business?”
