New Franchises for Sale
Explore brand-new franchise opportunities across industries, investment levels, and locations, all in one place.
No obligation. No pressure. Just clear guidance.
What Is a New Franchise Opportunity?
A new franchise opportunity means you’re opening a new location rather than purchasing an existing franchise from a current owner. You start with a clean slate. No legacy staff, no inherited systems, and launch your business using the franchisor’s established model.
New franchise opportunities typically include:
- Brand training and onboarding
- Operational systems and playbooks
- Marketing guidance and launch support
- Defined territories or protected markets
- Ongoing coaching and network support from existing owners
If you’re looking to acquire an already operating location with revenue history, you may want to explore Franchise Resales (link to the resale page) instead.
