The franchise business model appeals to a lot of people. Becoming a franchisee gives you the chance to own your own business with a ready-to-sell product or service. You have a lot of freedom to run it how you want with a team you choose yourself while also enjoying much more support than the average small-business owner. Throughout the industry, it&#8217;s becoming more common for franchise teams to be made up of family members. People like the idea of working with someone they&#8217;ve known for years who they know they can trust. Also, family businesses leave a legacy; family members are motivated to work well together because they&#8217;re working to improve future generations&#8217; lives.

The Franchise Times Development Tracker highlighted Michael and Logan Moore, the father and son team who recently signed a 10-unit deal with the brand in Frisco, Texas. They both always wanted to become entrepreneurs, so they decided to pool their resources and do it together. Fathers and sons aren&#8217;t the only ones working together, however. Sibling partnerships are also fairly common. <a href="http://www.toppersfranchise.ca/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=franchise-times-highlights-family-run-franchises-1434" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Topper&#8217;s Pizza Canada</a>, a leader in the fast-casual pizza industry, was started by Ron Toppazinni in 1982. He handed the <a href="http://1851franchise.com/details/1308/Family-owned-Topper-s-Pizza-Canada-shares-business-tips">business</a> over to his two sons, who now oversee the brand&#8217;s 36 locations.With the advantages a franchise system can offer small-business owners, it shouldn&#8217;t be surprising that it&#8217;s often a family affair.
