Franchising and Trade

Franchise, distribution and agency networks, and the trade that runs through them.

Franchising lets a brand grow on other people's capital, and puts the brand in other people's hands. We draft and negotiate franchise, master franchise, distribution and agency agreements that protect the brand while giving the franchisee a business worth running, and register the trademarks and licences they depend on.

For businesses trading across borders we advise on import and export regulation, customs and trade documentation, and the terms of supply and sale between buyer and seller.
