Things to know about franchising
You should know about the status of the franchisors in the market before investing your money into the company. The type of training and support that the franchisor would provide should be clearly known. The Uniform Franchise Offering Circular (UFOC) is a legal document that franchisors must furnish to franchisees, as regulated by the Federal Trade Commission. Read more here. -
What is VetFran?
To honor those men and women who have served in the U.S. military, the Veterans Transition Franchise Initiative, known as “VetFran,” was developed to help them transition to civilian life. The idea of the late Don Dwyer Sr., founder of The Dwyer Group, VetFran is a voluntary effort of International Franchise Association member-companies that is designed to encourage franchise ownership by offering financial incentives to honorably discharged veterans. To date, more than 250 franchise companies participate in the program. Click here for Vetfran incentives.
