A franchise agreement is a legal contract between a franchisor, who owns a brand or business model, and a franchisee, who wants to operate a business using that brand. The agreement outlines the rights and responsibilities of both parties, including the franchisee's payment of fees and royalties, adherence to brand standards, and the franchisor's support and guidance.

This arrangement can benefit both parties by leveraging the brand's recognition and established business practices.
