A master franchise gives you the rights to develop a brand across a whole territory — recruiting and supporting sub-franchisees rather than only running outlets yourself. These brands are offering master franchise, area development or regional developer rights. The territory on offer varies from brand to brand — some are looking for a UK master franchisee, others for Ireland, Europe or further afield — so each card shows the franchisor’s own wording.
22 brands are currently offering master franchise, area development or regional developer rights.
Territories vary: some of these brands are offering master rights for the UK, others for Ireland, Europe or further afield. Each card shows the franchisor’s own wording so you can see which is which before you enquire.

What is a master franchise?
A master franchisee buys the rights to a brand for a defined territory — often a whole country or a large region. Rather than operating a single outlet, you build the network: recruiting sub-franchisees, training and supporting them, and sharing in their franchise fees and royalties. It is a bigger commitment than a single-unit franchise, and the investment usually reflects that.
Check which territory is actually on offer
This is the single most important thing to establish, and it is easy to assume. A brand advertising a master licence may already have the UK covered and be seeking partners for Ireland, Europe or another continent entirely. Others are established overseas and the UK is the territory still open. We show each franchisor’s own description of what is available rather than paraphrasing it — read that line first, then confirm it directly with them.
Who is it for?
Master franchising suits experienced operators and investors who want to build a business of businesses — typically people with management, recruitment or multi-site experience, and the capital to fund a development schedule.
How to enquire
Add any brand to your Request List to hear directly from the franchisor. It is free, with no obligation, and you can name the territory you are interested in when you message them.
