Which of the following type of franchising model typically require that a business owner purchases and distributes the products for one specific company?

Business franchise opportunity ventures

The correct answer is Option 2: Business franchise opportunity ventures

Franchising is as "an arrangement whereby the manufacturer or sole distributor of a trademarked product or service gives exclusive rights of local distribution to independent retailers in return for their payment of royalties and conformance to standardized operating procedures".

Types of Franchising:

a. Product franchise business opportunity: Manufacturers use the product franchise to govern how a retailer distributes their products. The manufacturer grants a store owner the authority to distribute goods by the manufacturer and allows the owner to use the name and trademark owned by the manufacturer. The store owner must pay a fee or purchase a minimum inventory of stock in return for these rights. Some tire stores are good examples of this type of franchise.

b. Business franchise opportunity ventures: These ventures typically require that a business owner purchases and distributes the products for one specific company. The company must provide customers or accounts to the business owner, and in return, the business owner pays a fee or other consideration as compensation. Examples include vending machine routes and distributorships.

c. Business format franchise opportunity: This is the most popular form of franchising. In this approach, a company provides a business owner with a proven method for operating a business using the name and trademark of the company. The company usually provides a significant amount of assistance to the business owner in starting and managing the company. The business owner pays a fee or royalty in return. Typically, a company also requires the owner to purchase supplies from the company.

d. Manufacturing franchise opportunity: These types of franchises provide an organization with the right to manufacture a product and sell it to the public, using the franchisor's name and trademark. This type of franchise is found most often in the food and beverage industry. Most bottlers of soft drinks receive a franchise from a company and must use its ingredients to produce, bottle and distribute the soft drinks.
