Listing franchise territories and resales
Franchise inventory behaves differently from a standard listing. A brand page sells entry into a system; a resale sells an existing unit with trading history. Both live on Revanu, and buyers filter them separately.
Brands versus resales
What a brand page needs
- Total investment range and the franchise fee.
- Liquid capital and net worth requirements.
- Average unit revenue, and royalty percentage.
- Units open, units available, and years franchising.
- Territory list with availability and population.
- The current FDD, available on request.
How territory availability works
Each territory is open, reserved, or taken. Reserved means an existing franchisee holds development rights; buyers see that rather than an empty space, because "no territory here" and "someone else has the option" are different answers.
Qualifying buyers on capital
Buyers enter their liquid capital and net worth in the filters. Brands they clear are marked as qualifying, and the requirement figures show green. That saves both sides the conversation where a buyer discovers on call three that they are $200,000 short.
A franchisor deciding who to send an FDD to treats a verified buyer very differently from an unverified enquiry.
Resale listings
List these like any business: three years of numbers, what is included, and the asking price. Add the franchisor approval requirement in the terms, because a buyer needs to know approval is a condition before they spend on diligence.
Who supplies inventory
- Franchisors listing their own brands directly.
- Revanu-curated brand pages, which a franchisor can claim and take over.
- Brokers listing opportunities and resales on behalf of clients.
Confirm how brand pages get claimed and verified, whether FDD hosting is in scope, and how territory data will be sourced and kept current.
