| dc.description.abstract | Franchising is one of the fastest growing strategies for business expansion. A franchise is a binding contract between the franchisor and franchisee, in which the franchisor grants the franchisee the right to implement the former’s business system in exchange for the franchisee’s payment of fees and royalties. The complex interplay of numerous areas of law in the regulation of franchise agreements on one hand and the prevalent imbalance of information and bargaining power between franchisors and franchisees on the other necessitated separate regulation of franchise agreements in many legal systems. In general, regulation of franchise agreements can be done through franchise-specific laws (or regulation-based model), general rules of commercial law (or private law-based model), industry self-regulation, or any combination of the three models. This research work intends to examine the regulation of franchise agreements in Ethiopia. After needful analysis, the researcher concludes that the regulation of franchise agreements in Ethiopia is inadequate, unthoughtful of the unique features of franchise business relationship and ineffective to give remedy to practical and potential problems. Thus, the researcher mainly recommends the enactment of comprehensive franchise-specific law. | en_US |
