Identifying and explaining this concept.
Concept - Manufacturing franchise opportunity: These kinds of franchises allow the company to produce and distribute the product to the public market, under the name and trademark of the franchiser.

The capital required for this expansion is far less than it might have been without franchise model. Operating a franchised company needs less workers than a non-franchised enterprise. Head office and local offices may be staffed loosely, mainly to meet the franchisees' needs. This helps the franchisor to retain low payroll and reduce personnel issues. Cost advantages: The franchisor may then buy products in vast quantities, which would have been otherwise difficult to reach economies of scope. Most companies produce and distribute vast quantities of components, products, packaging and raw materials to the franchisors. The ability to devote bigger amounts of money to ads is one of the main cost advantages of franchising a company. This aggregation of resources allows the franchisor to perform advertising in a wide geographical region in major media.
