Frachising


            History of Franchising and its costs.
             The concept of franchising can be traced back to the thirteenth century. A government or sovereign power would grant people the right to hold markets and fairs to sell their wares, or hunt on land owed by a lord. Franchising was very simple during this time because there were no written contracts used to regulate the sale of goods. However, some people were required to pay for the rights to sell their product(s); the term used for that was "royalties- which is still used in business today. During the 1840's in Germany, major ale brewers granted taverns the right to sell their beer. This was the beginning of the modern day concept we know as franchising. In the United States, franchising, as it is now known, began in 1851 with the Singer Sewing Machine Company following the Civil War. They showed signs of great success as far back as the 1850's.
