"Companies launch franchises for small towns"

Nina Semina, founder of the franchise catalog franshiza.ru

“In 2017, low-cost franchises (up to 700,000 rubles of expenses for starting a business) were popular, as well as franchises in the field of medical and laboratory diagnostics, children’s education, beauty and Catering. Decrease in demand for franchises in the field retail clothing and footwear, and demand for color cosmetics franchises has grown: in early 2017, we saw an increase in demand for Flormar, NYX Professional Makeup and the Russian brand Mixit. The trend is also the segment of franchising, built on the sale of food, drinks, household goods for low prices("Galamart", fix price, Home Market).

More and more operating franchisors are launching as a separate franchise format for small towns. Previously, everyone wanted to develop networks in millionaires, but there is already strong competition in most markets. In small towns, the competition is not so high, but they need special offers with a minimum investment. On the other hand, many Russian successful franchisors are starting to enter international market- to the countries of the post-Soviet space, to Europe and China. This is mainly typical for the catering segment (Chocolate Girl, Gelateria Plombir, Dodo Pizza, etc.). ,>

Among the new areas of franchising in 2017 are EMS fitness, Mind games, virtual reality, aggregators (for example, Fasten taxi aggregator). An interesting trend is the development of multi-franchising, when people purchase several different franchises at once.

According to forecasts for 2018, we expect the emergence of franchises in the field of services and goods for animals (Medvet animal clinics have already appeared), interesting regional concepts for fast food franchises, the development of the “with a twist” restaurant segment, the beauty and health segment, IT franchises, as well as franchises targeted at the younger generation.

"The typical franchise buyer is the middle manager"

co-owner consulting company Deloshop Philip Gureev

“We are seeing a slight increase in demand for franchises in the range of 5-10% per year. At the same time, many new franchise players are emerging. Many of them quickly cease their activities. As a rule, these are small companies from the regions that have opened two or three points in their own country and now expect to conquer the whole of Russia with their concept. Basically, these are services and catering with starting investments from 1-2 million rubles. However, if a business does well in one city, this does not mean at all that it will be successful at the federal level. In general, there are many more new concepts and ideas on the market than franchise buyers.

As usual, children's centers, football schools, medical laboratories etc. The network is successfully developing (No. 20. - RBC) from Metro Cash & Carry - many owners of unnamed convenience stores prefer to work under the wing of a large chain.

A typical franchise buyer in 2017 is a middle manager who has up to 5 million rubles. As a rule, he views the franchise as a way to receive passive income. Deposit rates have fallen, real estate is not getting more expensive, so they want to start some kind of business. At the same time, they often trust his wives, relatives, hired managers, which, of course, is a mistake. The less the owner is involved in the franchise business, the greater his chances of losing money. Sometimes it's easier to buy already ready business“It will cost more than a franchise, but there are fewer risks.”

In difficult for state economy During this period, many citizens prefer not only to live in a “paycheck to paycheck” regime, but also to look for additional ways to get a stable income. The Internet is filled with offers of dubious managers who offer to participate in the development of unknown companies. The idea for this is to organize your own business, which will allow you to receive maximum finance and manage your earnings at your own discretion.

The perfect way to organize own business- the best franchises that act as the main object in the process of concluding a contract. The concept is whole complex economic and wealth, which include full rights to use the brand and the finished model, as well as all the necessary tools for doing business.

Before using popular franchises, it is worth carefully analyzing the terms of each offer, comparing all the benefits and possible prospects. For the convenience of choice, specialists in the field of finance compile special ratings, which detail the conditions, necessary investments and the expected amount of money. The degree of profitability of a particular option was determined taking into account the average amount of earnings in relation to the number of initial investments and annual profit.
