Frequently asked questions

Franchise qualification is the process of preparing a company so that it can grant franchise rights to other parties: developing the business model, preparing the documents and contracts, building the operating manuals and setting up a governance system that keeps consistency and quality across all branches.

The qualification process has ten main stages: analysis of the current business; assessment of how well the business can scale; review of the commercial and operational identity; development of the franchise model; preparation of the documents and contracts; preparation of the operating manuals; definition of the fees, percentages and obligations; preparation of the expansion plan; training of the team; and follow-up of the implementation and continuous improvement.

The main documents are: the disclosure document, the franchise agreement, the area development agreement, the operations manual, the operating identity manual, the fees and royalties structure, the expansion plan and the training documents. Developers Gate prepares these documents.
