What is the role of a Master Franchise?

A Master Franchisee buys the development rights to an exclusive territory. We encourage the Master Franchisee to open their own location first to prove the model and to have a location for training. The Master Franchisee recruits, trains, and provides ongoing support to each franchisee they sign. The Master Franchisee acts as a Franchisor to the sub-franchisees.
