Franchising is the process of forming a partnership with a particular business to sell its products or services. Today, franchising is becoming increasingly popular among entrepreneurs looking to improve their profit margins by introducing new product lines or expanding existing operations. Franchising is taking a business idea and giving it a life of its own. It is giving someone the ability to build their own business. Interested ones need to submit an amount to the franchisor and in turn, the franchisor gives him rights to his business. Training and support are also provided to the franchisees if needed.

Though the concept is new in India, franchising is decades old in the developed countries. Franchising can be a great opportunity for entrepreneurs whose businesses don’t quite get off the ground.
