Overview
Franchising
offers the opportunity to run a business while receiving support from a
national office. According to the International Franchise Association,
sales from franchise businesses totaled more than $803 billion in 1992,
accounting for 40.9% of all retail sales. Statistically, a new
franchise opens every 8 minutes,
and, according to studies conducted by the U.S. Commerce Department
from 1971 to 1987, less than 5% of franchises have failed or
discontinued on an annual basis.
