Case:

Complying with Federal Regulations for Franchises

You have operated one of your property sites as a prototype for the franchise operation. The properties are all in upscale locations that support the restaurant’s thematic dessert profile. This new site has test-marketed the franchise concept with the patented dessert brand, “Brain Freeze,” that savory specialty formulated dessert treat created by Sally. The dessert has become so popular that many customers have requested extra take-home orders. A substantial number of patrons have even asked if the dessert would ever be sold separately in markets. The dessert menu has a strong sales position in overall restaurant sales and generated a cash flow that supported the entire overhead of the test model. Your company is now ready to launch the franchise operation, but you must first complete this assignment.
