Our method of franchising has been one of its basic strengths and an essential
part of our systems success. Our system allows owner/operator to realize their

invests in equipment, furniture, fixtures, signages, and decoration. The real
estate acquisition costs, the building and leasehold adjustments. The franchiser

percentage in gross sales in addition to territorial rights, and we also get
store operating licenses as royalty fees. The franchisee earns the return of his
