Eleven U.S. franchisors are set to visit Mumbai on December 8, 2014, as part of a trade mission organized by the U.S. Commercial Service (USCS). The aim is to identify potential master franchisees, licensees, and area developers in India. This marks the second Franchising Trade Mission by USCS to India, with additional stops planned in Bangalore and New Delhi.

The visiting franchisors represent a diverse range of successful U.S. businesses spanning food chains, construction products, and retail concepts. Franchising offers Indian partners the chance to adapt proven business models with strong brand recognition.

While acquiring franchise rights may require significant investment, it promises quality partnerships and access to established business frameworks. The collaboration allows Indian partners to develop new businesses while benefiting from guidance and best practices provided by parent companies.
