With the emergence and spread of globalization, the business model of franchises has seen a surge in growth. The businesses, which were earlier operating only in their territorial jurisdictions, were now able to establish their identity across borders internationally. This helps both the franchisor and franchisee, as the former gets to expand their business and the latter gets employment. But these benefits come at the cost of stringent compliance with the laws of the nation in which they step foot. This means that whenever the franchisor considers opening a franchise, either in his homeland or outside his homeland, he has to adhere to all the rules, regulations, and local laws of that place. Without following these laws, the franchise would not be able to survive for a long time, or might even not be able to begin at all. So, compliance with the local laws is a golden rule for franchises.
