Multi-unit franchises are an excellent opportunity to build your investment portfolio. As of 2016, approximately 200 franchisee entities operated more than 25,000 restaurants across the country, purchasing the rights to multiple units in exclusive territories. Entrepreneurs who choose the multi-unit path and oversee multiple franchisees often rely on operating partners or experienced general managers to oversee daily operations at each unit.

The Growth of Multi-Unit Franchising
Investors recognize the financial stability and increased operating efficiencies offered by multi-unit franchises. According to the International Franchise Association Educational Foundation, multi-unit franchise entrepreneurs own approximately 52% of all franchises units. Some of the most important benefits of multi-unit franchising include streamlined systems from the franchisor to help owners run multiple units in a specific territory, as well as training to help franchisees run these operations and guide their locations’ management for optimum performance.
