Maturity

A franchised business is considered mature when it counts 100 or more units in its system. If your franchise is at this stage, you may have also established an international presence or are considering an expansion beyond Canada’s borders.

Either way, as a mature franchisor you’re in an exciting period of continued growth. Like others at this stage, you’re likely looking to use the success of your system to grow at a more rapid rate and will need to spend more to achieve this rapid growth.
