For over 16 years, the French Franchise Federation, in partnership with Banque Populaire, has been highlighting key figures from the world of franchising. Several topics are covered in the form of episodes, which we have shared on our social media channels, making this study a true reference in its field. We invite you to take a look back at the key points of this survey.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>

This year, more than ever, franchise professionals have had to constantly adapt and reinvent themselves in the face of the health crisis and the evolution of consumer habits and digital transformation.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Covid-19: The world of franchising faces the health crisis<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The Covid-19 crisis disrupted the organization of many companies. Between closures, the implementation of remote work, and successive lockdowns, it was a major leap into the unknown. The ability to adapt quickly in order to keep working was vital for companies to \"survive\" and limit revenue loss. Despite everything, franchising remains a source of job creation: 6 out of 10 franchisees have created at least one job.<\/span><\/p>

The advantages of being part of a franchise network rather than an independent business became clear for 67% of franchisees, who believe they were better able to handle the coronavirus crisis, particularly thanks to the support measures provided by franchisors. These measures included more regular communication (87%), the introduction of new digital tools (58%), the development of new services for customers (44%), and more frequent meetings with other franchisees in the network (42%).<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0During this period, an intensification of communication within networks was observed. This was reflected in at least one visit from a network manager (in 91% of cases). In addition to the measures implemented by the network headquarters, 86% of franchisees introduced specific activities to better adapt to the crisis. Following the deployment of all these actions, one in two franchisees observed a positive impact on their business.<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>

\u00a0Franchisees are therefore satisfied with the franchise model, and 90% of them would recommend it. The fact that they were not left on their own during a crisis and received support highlights the true benefits of being part of a franchise network.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The world of entrepreneurship is increasingly attracting the French. Indeed, nearly one-third of them wish to start their own business, and 40% are drawn to the independence and security offered by the franchise model. It is worth noting that 72% of franchisees were employees before choosing entrepreneurship, 49% have a high school diploma or less, and 54% hold a degree equivalent to two years of higher education or more.<\/p>

Trust is key, as seniority plays an important role \u2014 6 out of 10 franchisees joined their network 10 years ago or more.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The process of launching a franchise is relatively straightforward, as training takes an average of about 36 days, and being a franchisee generally makes it easier to obtain a bank loan (in 62% of cases).\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
