As strange as it sounds, franchising dates back to the Middle Ages. Church officials were of high stature, so local authorities granted them a license to assess taxes and maintain business order. The lords of medieval courts granted individuals the right to carry out business activities and hold markets. These early franchisees paid a nominal fee to the lords for protection to carry out their ventures. With time, the framework under which these early franchisees operated became a part of European Common Law.
Franchising essentially groups businesses together under a single banner to make resources and production of final goods cheaper, and to promote sales. There is a common misconception that franchises mean a lot of money, which is not always true. Franchises enable small businesses to set up their own ventures, with all the resources they need, and the stability of an established brand.
National Franchise Appreciation Day encourages consumers to buy more products from franchise-backed businesses and aims to bring synergy between similar businesses.
It is better to offer no excuse than a bad one.
