Retail and fashion franchises
In a retail franchise you are not really buying a logo, you are buying a supply chain. Your money sits on shelves and in the stockroom rather than in the bank. So every profile here looks at who decides the range, who carries unsold pieces and how quickly stock turns over.
Fashion adds seasonality: collections are ordered months ahead and whatever does not sell is cleared at a discount. A network that allows returns, swaps or rolling orders is usually safer for a first-time operator than a famous brand with fixed monthly minimums. The catalogue covers Czech, Slovak and Polish networks.

Frequently asked
?How much does it cost to open a retail franchise?
It depends mostly on floor area and the compulsory opening stock. The entry fee is usually the smaller part; rent, deposit, fit-out and inventory take the rest. Each profile in the catalogue gives that network's own investment band rather than an industry average.
?Do I have to buy all stock from the franchisor?
In most retail networks yes, because supplying goods is how the franchisor actually earns. What varies is whether you face monthly minimums, whether unsold items can be returned or moved between stores, and who pays freight. Ask for those terms in writing before signing.
?Is a fashion franchise still worth it next to online shops?
A shop now competes with the brand's own e-shop as well. Ask whether the network protects your territory, whether you earn anything on online orders collected in your store, and how chain-wide discount campaigns that cut your margin are decided.
