Franchise Fees

Franchise fees are upfront costs paid by a franchisee to a franchisor for the right to operate a business using the franchisor’s brand, systems, and support. These fees typically cover initial training, access to proprietary processes, and ongoing brand usage. They are a common part of franchise agreements and can vary depending on the franchise. Think of it as purchasing a license to use an established business concept and its resources, helping the franchisee get started with a proven model while the franchisor maintains brand consistency and supports the franchisee’s success.
