Franchising Aushroom n Canada

TORONTO (CP) — Franchis- ing—giving individuals the right to sell your product: and ideas for a fee—is mushrooming in Canada with sales this year ex- | pected to top the $1,500,000,000 | mark

Covering a vast spectrum of business from car rentals to roadside hamburger stands, the industry has grown as much as | 10 times in the last decade ac- cording to some estimates.

“Franchising can include the hest of two worlds—the initia- | tive and incentive that can only come from an owner operating his own business and the super- vision, co-ordination and man- | agement help that a national business provides,” says Harold Schneer, president of Red Barna System (Canada) Ltd.

The cost of a franchise, most | of them set up by United States companies or their subsidiaries. can vary from $1,000 to $100,000 depending on the vroduct. Most run. about $20,000, with the agent also paying a percentage qo his gross take. :

In return, franchisers offer agents yearly profits of $15,000 | and up

It's a tough grind, however, between buying the franchise and pocketing the profit - “You still have to work like a son of a gun,” says,” Mr. Schneer._‘Many agents assume that as soon as they get the franchise they can take it easy

“and listen to the cash registers ring.

“You can’t—you have to work hard. This isn't a lark, it's a big business. If a man doesn't oper- ate properly, he gets kicked out.”

Under a franchise agreement, the agent gets the right to sell-| products er services which gen-

erally have proved successful ‘in other parts of the country. COMPANY HELPS
