Multi-brand strategies - pitfalls and pluses
| |
| As franchising grows in Australia so does the number of franchisors that operate more than the one brand. Rod Young from DC Strategy discusses the multiple-brand strategy.
They may be disparate brands, not related to each other except they occupy retail shopping centre space. For example, the Pets Paradise, Warner Bros. Studios (all company owned) and Billy Baxter’s Coffee Shops are all controlled by the one group.
