How can a person who is interested in a franchise business study the mandatory UFOC Uniform Franchise Offering Circulars without having to contact the company and have a salesman hounding them? Well it is possible to get a companies UFOC fairly easily, as many states and countries require them to be registered and have on hand a copy you see?
Also some smart entrepreneurs have developed websites and will offer them to you online for a small fee; Go to http://www.franchise.com as an example of this. They sell them online I believe. But you can also get them from any registration state by asking them and paying for the copies. There are also books by Robert Bond on Amazon.com, which will allow you to evaluate the offerings side by side.
Not all Countries in the EU require such disclosure registered documents with their country, but most do. And the ones that do can help you get them there if you live in Europe. Actually in a perfect world and maybe someday there should be one law for Middle East, USA, Australia, Asia and EU and it should be simplified to allow better money flows between nations, better concepts, more efficiency in markets and more unity thru the share of culture.
It would be best for all concerned and the World would become a closer place. It should be done. If I were in charge I would make it a mission of the UN to see this thru and ask for the support of the World Bank and all industrialized and immerging nations. Consider this in 2006.
