Don't let pjb see this. He'll send in his army of price fixers.

The 2026 price mandate by corp could cost you your franchise license if you do not cooperate with it and do all the discounting and price fixing that corporate dictates.
Isnt this ILLEGAL?.
Where is the FTC?? NFLA??? NOA??, Lawsuits ????

We are not independent business people anymore. We are merely employees and tenants!

Id love to see the figures on how many operators went bankrupt, or left the system due to lack of acceptable profit.

That's the beauty of franchising - no such information exists. Franchisees who fail don't want to talk about it publicly, and the franchise companies pretend it doesn't happen.
Actual bankruptcies are rare since it makes more sense just to sell or walk away and absorb the personal liabilities. In bankruptcy, you have to let others make all the decisions, and it's a public process (Oh... so public).
The franchise bankruptcies mentioned in the trade pubs are usually large organizations with hundreds of locations and millions in liabilities that no one can or will cover personally.
