International Franchising

International franchising involves a business (the franchisor) granting rights to a foreign individual or company (the franchisee) to operate a franchise using its brand, systems, and support. This agreement allows the franchisee to sell products or services under the franchisor's established trademark in another country. Franchise law governs the relationship, ensuring compliance with national regulations, protecting both parties' rights, and outlining obligations such as fees, training, and quality control. It helps create a structured business model while navigating different legal environments and cultural practices in international markets.
