How do I expand my franchise brand into Southeast Asia?

The most effective path is to appoint a master franchisee or area developer in each target market. VF Franchise Consulting manages the entire process — from market feasibility and partner identification to deal structuring and franchisee onboarding — through our Franchise Fast Track service.

What is a master franchise and how does it work?

A master franchise grants a local investor the rights to sub-franchise a brand within a defined territory. The master franchisee recruits and supports individual unit operators. This model is the most common structure for international brand expansion in Asia.

How long has VF Franchise Consulting been operating?

VF Franchise Consulting was founded in 2008 and has over 15 years of experience in international franchise development across Asia and the Middle East.

What types of franchise brands does VF Franchise Consulting represent?

We work with brands across F&B, fitness and wellness, education, retail, and business services. Current and past brands include Texas Roadhouse, PizzaExpress, Crunch Fitness, Club Pilates, Chuck E. Cheese, and many others.

Smoothie King Vietnam expansion plan

South Korea’s Shinsegae Group is to buy the Korean network of 105 Smoothie King stores and launch the brand into Vietnam.
Smoothie King Vietnam will initially be focused on the Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi markets.
Based in the southern US city of New Orleans, Smoothie King produces and markets smoothies, juices, sports drinks, energy bars, vitamins and health supplements. It currently boasts more than 700 locations worldwide and is targeting 1000 by the end of 2017.
The Vietnam news follows an announced expansion into the Middle East earlier this year, commencing in Dubai.
“This deal is monumental for Smoothie King – and one that we thought long and hard about. I was the master franchisee in Korea and bought the brand in 2012, making growth a primary goal for the company,” said Smoothie King CEO Wan Kim.
