franchise owner

Branch business holder

A franchise owner is someone who operates a business under license from a larger company, using its brand, products, and systems in exchange for fees and a share of revenue.

The franchise owner invests capital and manages day-to-day operations but must follow the franchisor's rules: She's a franchise owner with three McDonald's locations.

The arrangement offers brand recognition and support while limiting independence.
