This is totally possible and not out of line with other agreements. I know of one agreement that requires the franchisee to pay corporate's legal fees if a lawsuit resulted from actions in the store.
- lotsofpulp 8y agoI've seen that too, but that's also just monetary penalties. From the agreements I've seen for hotels, there was never any equity involved, and the franchisor definitely didn't want anything to do with payroll. In fact, being shielded from that kind of liability is one of the perks of being a franchisor, so it's very surprising that 7-Eleven would even want to be a part of that. I can see wanting to track sales and whatnot so they can verify that they're getting their cut, but I see no benefit to 7-Eleven corporate to getting involved with the staffing, it's not like their royalties would be effected. And they would get to put all the blame on the franchisee when problems like this occur.
