Franchise UK - What is franchising?
There are more than 600 franchise opportunities available in the UK . This presents anyone gathering information on franchising with an overwhelming variety of franchise options and in turn created the opinion that franchising is an industry in its own right.
In reality this opinion is incorrect, franchising is simply a method of marketing goods or services. The use of franchising as a marketing method crosses many borders and although the principles of each individual company may differ, the method of franchising remains the same.
The process creates, what is known as a ‘Business Format Franchise’ and is the most prominent form of franchising in the UK, in fact, so common that most high street shops operate under a UK franchise license, without you even knowing it!
Other forms of UK franchising exist, product distribution franchises are also common place and once again, not particularly noticed by the general public, for instance, the dealership that you purchased your car from was likely to have been operating under this form of franchise arrangement. However these UK franchises do operate under different agreements and the concept and internal workings of such franchise businesses differ in many ways from a business format franchise.
Franchise UK - Benefits of franchising
For the franchise seeker a franchise business presents an opportunity to operate your own successful franchise business in the industry that best suites your personal skills. In most cases this will also be at a fraction of the costs and risk normally associated with setting up a new business.
For the UK franchise business itself, the growth offered by franchising can be far quicker than more traditional methods of expansion, not only this but franchising also presents far less capital risk and overall investment to the franchise opportunity owner.
In short, franchising your business will give you the opportunity to build your brand on a national or even international level. Each franchisee would have made an investment of time and money into your brand and should therefore want to be the most successful in your network, thus creating a far greater chance of personal success for the franchisee and overall success for the franchise business.
Many banks are very supportive of franchise businesses including HSBC, Lloyds TSB, Natwest and RBS and all have a specialist franchise department in the UK. Their are also several national newspapers that promote franchising in the uk but the main papers are The Daily Express and The Daily Mail
