Franchising

If you want to franchise your business or buy a franchise in England or Wales, LegalVision’s experienced franchise team can help. We have provided legal advice to clients across a wide range of industries, including IT, retail and hospitality services, and can clearly explain your rights and obligations.

Franchise Your Business

Franchising is becoming increasingly popular in England and Wales as a means of growing a business. Franchises include fashion, fitness, food, real estate, and professional services, among others. To franchise your business means licensing a prospective franchisee to distribute and market goods and services under your brand, including using your intellectual property. 

Our team can help you with:

  • drafting your key documents, including the master franchise agreement;
  • licence and distribution agreements; 
  • new franchisee document packs; and
  • brand protection, such as registering trade marks for the franchise business.

When you are ready for international expansion, we can help you with that, too.

Buying a Franchise 

Buying a franchise is a great option if you prefer to work with an established brand. The LegalVision franchising team can assist with:

  • reviewing the franchise documents, such as your agreement and disclosure documents;
  • negotiating on your behalf with the franchisor; and
  • reviewing and negotiating your commercial lease.

LegalVision has extensive experience helping thousands of franchise businesses. Let us help you achieve your franchise goals. Further, we offer price certainty for further peace of mind. Call LegalVision’s franchise lawyers today on 0808 196 8584 or complete the form on this page.
