Multi-Unit Development Opportunities



Historically, franchise companies often sold their opportunities to single-unit operators (mom and pops as they are typically called). Now, many franchisors prefer to sell their franchises to multi-unit operators (also called area developers).

Multi-unit operators/area developers are franchisees who have been given the right to establish and operate more than one unit in a specified geographic territory. The franchisee often pays a fee for the territorial rights and agrees to meet a performance obligation or schedule for unit development within that area.

Becoming an area developer offers several benefits.

For instances, you can:
  • Eliminate the risk that the area you are interested in developing will be saturated by another franchisee.
  • Develop more units in closer proximity to your existing units.
  • Diversify your risk if one of your locations underperforms.
  • Protect the brand by controlling the quality of your product or service.
  • Retain full control over your local marketing to receive the maximum benefit.
