Franchises: market research reports

Many people are looking for ways to get out of the confines of the corporate life and become their own boss. A franchise is a business opportunity that allows an individual to start a business by legally using another person’s (or corporate) business model. Franchises are approvals given by a corporation for an individual or group to sell that company’s goods or services in another location. In return, the franchisor maintains the business process while the new operator runs that business according to their model.

Franchises are potentially good opportunities for individuals who like a certain type of business and would like to see a specific store or business in their area.
