Franchise law regulates the commercial relationship between the franchisor and the franchisee. The franchisor grants the franchisee not only its know-how but also the right to use its distinctive signs, such as trademarks. In return, the franchisee agrees to pay a fee. This model allows a business to capitalize on an existing commercial success by establishing a network of franchise partners. This development strategy offers the advantage of rapid expansion with a reduced initial investment for the franchisor while allowing the franchisee to benefit from established rights and a proven business model.
The franchise agreement determines the extent of the relationship between the franchisor and the franchisee. It is therefore essential to define a precise contractual framework to secure each party’s investments.
Dreyfus, in collaboration with its global network of specialized intellectual property lawyers, assists you in franchise law negotiations, drafting, and analyzing franchise agreements to establish an effective strategy for protecting your interests.
In franchise law, the franchise agreement typically includes a trademark license, allowing the franchisee to use the franchisor’s trademark to market its products and services. This license also allows the franchisee to promote their business under this trademark, facilitating customer recognition.
