I am currently looking for information on VC firms or other financial institutions that specialize in franchises. Specifically, I am interested in franchises that operate in the United States.

I am an entrepreneur looking to invest in a franchise, and I believe that there is a significant opportunity for growth and success in this market. However, I am still in the process of researching my options and would love to hear from other members of the community who may have experience with this type of investment.

If you have any recommendations for VC firms, private equity firms, or other financial institutions that focus on franchises, or if you have experience investing in a franchise yourself, I would love to hear from you. I am particularly interested in franchises that operate in the service or retail sectors, but I am open to exploring other opportunities as well.

Thank you in advance for any information or advice you may be able to provide. I look forward to hearing from you!

Roark Capital out of Atlanta is huge in the franchise space. If you are interested in becoming a franchisee, there are ample resources on the internet you can find to familiarize yourself with the market and various opportunities available to an entrepreneur. I would do plenty of research before engaging with any intermediary or franchise consultant, as they are paid on you buying into the system. Also, you can find a lot of information on loan default data by franchise system on the SBA website. Not a perfect corollary with risk, but a great starting point to easily screen out some of the least successful systems.
