Franchise Business in Malaysia
The franchise industry in Malaysia continues to demonstrate impressive resilience and growth, solidifying its role as a key driver of the national economy. In 2022, the sector contributed over RM36 billion to Malaysia’s GDP, reflecting the increasing appeal of franchise opportunities to both local and foreign investors. With ambitious growth targets set by the government, the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Cost of Living aims to expand the industry by 20% to 30%, despite ongoing economic challenges. This creates a wealth of possibilities for businesses looking to establish a franchise outlet in Malaysia.
Unlike licensing, starting a business through franchising involves adhering to the Franchise Act 1988, which governs the relationship between franchisors and prospective franchisees. Key requirements include preparing a comprehensive franchise disclosure document, drafting a legally sound franchise agreement, and securing a franchise license. This process can be complex, requiring significant initial capital, careful financial planning, and a clear understanding of start-up costs.
At SQV Consulting Group, we specialize in helping businesses navigate these complexities. From developing a strong product or service offering to building brand recognition and attracting the right prospective franchisees, we provide end-to-end support throughout the franchising journey. Our expert team assists in structuring franchise fees, calculating ongoing royalty payments, and ensuring compliance with all regulatory requirements. Additionally, we help businesses manage start-up costs effectively, ensuring a smooth entry into the franchise market.
