Franchise: International
Franchisors and manufacturers often face challenges when developing an international program. We guide franchisors and manufacturers through this process to achieve their overseas expansion goals.
Franchisors operating or seeking to operate internationally retain us to:
- Structure international transactions and relationships
- Prepare and negotiate international franchise and distribution agreements, sales contracts, licensing agreements and joint venture documents
- Prepare international disclosure documents to comply with foreign disclosure laws
- Protect trademarks and other intellectual property
- Enforce international agreements
- Handle international (or foreign) franchisee insolvencies and bankruptcies
- Assist overseas franchisors in expanding their franchise system in Canada
