Using self-organizing time maps, this study examines how franchise brand behavior influences decisions by potential franchisees in Spain. The findings confirm that franchising offers an alternative to the business turnaround strategy, which firms apply when faced with adverse changes in the environment such as those caused by the economic crisis in Spain. Results show that all franchise brands within the same sector behaved similarly, except for brands in the catering sector, which displayed varying responses to the economic changes. The authors discuss the implications of these results for future franchisees.

The aim is to analyze the relationship between two signals—brand equity and price—sent by the franchisor, and the choice of franchise. Signaling theory provides the method to analyze this relationship. Using data panel methodology, we conclude that brand equity, up-front franchise fees, and initial investment are the signals taken into account by Spanish franchisees when starting up franchise stores between 2002 and 2008.

El objetivo es analizar la relación entre algunas señales enviadas por el franquiciador y la elección de una franquicia por el potencial franquiciado. Concluimos que los efectos de las variables macroeconómicas de España en el periodo 2006-2013 influyeron en los ingresos netos de los franquiciados para que se convirtiera en una señal empleada por éstos a la hora de elegir la franquicia donde abrir un establecimiento.

In Mexico, for example, despite its limited growth, the franchise system is dynamic. Over the past three decades, the inconsistent continuity of the global franchise business format may also be noted. The aim here is to analyse the factors linked to franchise continuity in the Mexican hospitality sector by applying panel data methodology to a sample of 253 hospitality sector chains between 2002 and 2016. The results showed that franchised outlets, proven and improved know-how, and market factors, under conditions of endogeneity, maintained a positive effect on the continuity of the franchise business format.
