franchises in the US
Hello everyone
My family and I have recently been thinking about buying a franchise of a large and growing company in the USA. I have filled out a questionaire and waiting to hear back. I have read on other EXPAT related sites that it is not a good time to invest in the US due to the poor economy at present. I was hoping that the mother company would be able to sponsor us as we would be buying into their business. Has anyone had similar experiences with buying a franchise or going through the motions?

Re: franchises in the US

You family or just you?

you just contradicted yourself -
Good luck finding a large and growing company then, when you find it, let me know I'll invest some money in it too.
yeah, because people are just nice like that

Just try a google search.
My friend has just moved here and initialy thought he would go along that route.
He made a few phone calls ect once he arrived in the US (Green card holder) and now he can't get them off of his back. !!! These parent companies will gladly help you part with your hard earned money. But I don't see them helping you with a visa.
Maybe there is someone in here that has achived it this way, but I don't know of anyone.
Good luck with your efforts though.
