Question 1

Does the franchisor need to approve a resale in UAE?

Accepted Answer

Yes — almost all franchise agreements require franchisor sign-off on the incoming owner, and may include training or minimum-capital requirements before approval.

Question 2

What ongoing fees apply after buying a franchise resale?

Accepted Answer

Expect an ongoing royalty (usually a percentage of turnover) plus a marketing/advertising-fund levy, both set out in the franchise agreement.

Question 3

How is a franchise resale priced?

Accepted Answer

Pricing usually reflects the outlet's trading profit plus the remaining term of the franchise agreement and territory rights, not just the value of the brand name.
