In the last ten years
pet services and products have ranked in the top of all business categories
for dollar volume and for fast growth.
According to the American
Pet Product Association (APPA), Americans will spend $45.5 billion on
pets in 2009 and pet products will be the fastest growing segment of
the retail industry, after consumer electronics.
FranchiseHelp has completed
(September 2009) a report on the US pet industry which includes a general
overview and specific information on 17 prominent pet franchises. The
report includes a description of the pet service/product business and
the investment level. More importantly, you will have access to all
17 franchise agreements and 8 financial representations.
The Franchise Agreement
traditionally outlines the franchisor's terms and conditions for the
franchisee. The franchise agreement also clearly explains the obligations
of the franchisor and the obligations of the franchisee. The Franchise
Agreement Document covers information such as franchise fees; supplier
obligations; real estate stipulations; the training and operational
support the franchisor will provide; franchisee’s territory; the initial
duration of the franchise and any renewal rights; regulations regarding
trademarks, patents and signs; tax issues; advertising policies; franchisee
termination issues; settlement of disputes; operating practices, cancellation,
and attorney fees.
