What is franchising?

Essentially, it is a business arrangement in which an individual (the franchisee) is granted the right to operate a business under the brand name, trademarks, and business model of a larger company (the franchisor). 

The franchisee therefore pays an initial fee and ongoing royalties to the franchisor in exchange for the right to use their brand, receive training and support, and access their products, services and marketing strategies.

Start your own business with the support of an established brand 

Franchising has long been a popular route for those looking to start their own business with the support of an established brand and proven business model. The franchise sector continues to thrive, offering a wide array of opportunities across various industries. From food and beverage to retail, education, property, consultancy and much more. There's a franchise to suit nearly every interest and investment level. Explore the world of franchising in the UK and explore some promising opportunities for aspiring business owners.

Franchising presents a compelling proposition for entrepreneurs looking to minimise risk while maximising their chances of success. Unlike starting a business from scratch, purchasing a franchise affords access to a well-known brand, comprehensive training, ongoing support, and a proven business framework.

Funding and Costs

Paying royalties when franchising is a standard practice and typically forms part of the franchise agreement between the franchisor and the franchisee. Royalties are fees paid by the franchisee to the franchisor in exchange for the right to use the franchisor's brand name, trademarks, business model, and ongoing support.

Most franchises invest the royalties paid back into the business. These funds will be utilised for operational improvement, sales, marketing and support. 

You will often need some level of personal investment to purchase a franchise. It is therefore important that you completely understand the total set up cost of each franchise that you find of interest. Most banks (subjec to their terms and conditions) will lend up to 70% of the investment as franchising is an already established and proven business model. There are also other avenues of investment that most franchisors will assist you with.
