Franchise & Company Set up
The vibrant business environment in the UAE, tourists seeking to buy from familiar brands, and the multicultural population makes the UAE a fertile franchising ground.
The prospect of expanding businesses drives brand owners to the UAE while the local community benefits from operating their own business.
The commercial agencies law
This is a law considered in the case of franchise arrangements. For a contract to apply;
- A UAE national must be the owner of the company or be an entity owned entirely by UAE nationals.
- Exclusivity of the relationship is a must either to the territory or a specific product.
- The relationship between the two parties must be registered.
Franchises are a common phenomenon in the UAE since it provides a good market for investors willing to test their products in a diverse population.
