FRANCHISE FRANCHISEE PROTECTION

Before buying into any franchise operation you MUST seek "territorial protection" NOT based on the population size of the area where the franchise is located. If you do not get the proper franchise protection and if the population around your location grows in size then the parent company of the francise can sell another franchise just like yours near your franchise location practically right around the corner from yours! Of course, this may decrease your store traffic and revenues.

Possibly consider buying a franchise that is already up and running. This way you can avoid the "start up" fees which can be costly.
