Abstract

Franchising is a complex, multifaceted, versatile, and dynamic organizational form. The many benefits of franchising include its ability to facilitate the efficient expansion/adoption of good business practices, to rapidly develop intellectual property both domestically and internationally, to promote the growth of small business, and to provide a vehicle for investment as well as for training of fledgling entrepreneurs. Franchising combines the advantages of small- and large-scale enterprise; it is personal and accessible while achieving important economies of scale and international brand recognition. While some argue that the regulation of the franchise sector tempers these advantages, appropriate regulation of the sector can enhance the benefits of franchising while at the same time reducing the impact of the inefficiencies inherent in the franchise relationship.
