Why start a franchise business?

A franchise is a relatively safe way of doing business. Of all start-up entrepreneurs, about 65% quit within three years. Among franchise entrepreneurs, this percentage is only 15% (Source: Franchise+). This is because franchising gives more security in most cases.

Franchising involves choosing to do business under an already existing brand, such as Etos, Subway, Bagels & Beans or Albert Heijn. The advantage of this is that you benefit from existing brand recognition and successes within the franchise formula. The entrepreneur is the boss of the store and can, to a certain extent, run his own business. However, some things are fixed in advance, such as the appearance of the store, logos and slogans.

Definition Franchise Entrepreneurship:
“Franchising is a close cooperation between legally independent entrepreneurs, the franchisor and the franchisee, who offer products and services to customers using a common name and with a uniform appearance.”

Due to flexible employment contracts and uncertain pensions, among other things, people are increasingly opting for entrepreneurship. In addition, we are constantly looking for new challenges and opportunities to develop ourselves. The number of entrepreneurs in the Netherlands therefore continues to grow every year in every age category. From millennials to Generation Z, the dream of starting your own business is present in every generation. So one thing is clear: You are never too young or too old for entrepreneurship!
