Social Franchise

A social franchise is a model where an organization partners with multiple local providers to deliver services under a common brand and quality standards. It aims to expand access to essential services—such as healthcare or education—by replicating successful practices across different locations. This approach leverages branding, training, and support to ensure consistency, while engaging local entrepreneurs or providers. Social franchises focus on social impact rather than profit, helping underserved communities access reliable, affordable services through a scalable and sustainable network.
