More than half of U.S. franchisees can’t earn a decent living from their business, according to a survey.
About 52 percent of U.S. franchisees don’t think they make a fair profit, according to a survey of 1,122 franchisees across industries including fast food, lodging and real estate. The poll, released Thursday by FranchiseGrade.com, was paid for by Change to Win, a federation of unions that includes the Service Employees International Union and the International Brotherhood of Teamsters.
