Franchising is a popular method of business expansion in the Middle East, with many Western brands entering the Gulf and beyond. We’ve identified opportunities for local businesses to grow and go into other parts of the region, as well as entering the European and American market. Franchising has really come of age for the Middle East region, with many businesses eager to take advantage of all the benefits of expanding through franchising.

Franchising is a tried and tested business growth strategy that has enabled many entrepreneurs to build wide-scale business networks. There are many benefits to franchising, including:
The business can expand with less capital (and therefore more quickly) than with the traditional route of company-owned expansion, since the start-up costs of opening in each new area are met by the franchisees.
Franchised units generally perform better than company-owned units, due to committed franchisees.
Franchise units that are are less troublesome to manage, due to the vested interest of the franchisee.
Franchisors can exercise a higher degree of control through the Franchise Agreement.
The day-to-day running of the individual franchise units is the responsibility of the franchisees.
The resources needed to build and support a franchise operation are generally less than a company-managed network.
