TLC Stores
U.S. Government research indicates that the success rate for franchise-owned ventures is significantly higher than that for non-franchised businesses. The same research also shows that over 80% of all new small non-franchised businesses fail, many within their first year of operation. In contrast, less than 2 percent of new franchised businesses are discontinued over a 3-year period.
* Although only 8% of businesses in the U.S. are franchises, they account for 40% of all U.S. retail sales;
* By a vote of 2 - to - 1, customers prefer shopping at a location with national name recognition;
* A franchise is easier to sell, and at a higher value, than an independent business.
