Franchisee Matching Process
We refer to our process as a “matching process” because both parties need to get to know one another over a period of time in order to decide if there’s a “match”. The Legacy Bagels business model is a fun and exciting opportunity, but it’s not right for everyone nor is everyone right for it. Our 7-step matching process is key for a successful, long-term partnership.
