Features: Franchise is becoming an increasingly trendy term these days. Look around, and you'll find (beauty salons), (laundromats), (photo printing shops), (hair accessory stores), (clothing stores), and (optical stores) on every street corner, all bearing familiar franchise logos. Turn on your computer, and you're bombarded with "80,000 RMB return on investment" and "be your own boss" franchise advertisements. However, beneath these enticing ads lie many insurmountable traps: Some businesses use false advertising (e.g., high returns) to recruit franchisees and (defraud franchise fees); others even engage in illegal pyramid schemes under the guise of franchising. Some franchise businesses lack strong corporate culture, management teams, financial strength, or operational foundations but expand recklessly, losing control over their chain stores once they reach a certain scale. Others, after participating in the "Franchise Expo" held annually in May, face operational problems the following year.
However, franchise recruitment activities across the country are still in full swing. How can small and medium-sized investors protect their rights and interests?
