Financial Management for Franchise Networks and Multi Brand Owners

Franchising has become a powerful way to scale retail, food and service brands across African cities, but it creates a finance model split between franchisor and franchisee. This course helps finance teams manage royalties, marketing levies, multi outlet reporting and the benchmarking that keeps a network healthy. Both franchisors and multi outlet owners learn to see and control the numbers that drive network profitability.
