7 Mobile Franchises to Get Your Money in Motion

With all the uncertainties resulting from COVID-19, opening up a mobile franchise could be your next best career move.

Mobile franchising gives business owners more flexibility and less risk. Literally taking their business on-the-go, owners don’t have to worry about as much upkeep as traditional brick and mortar shops. Due to their cheaper start-up costs, mobile franchises are also a safer move for those looking to get into franchising but worried about the economic climate. 

While the franchise industry as a whole typically does well and sees an increase in growth during economic downturns, mobile franchises are even more resilient since there is not a physical storefront that requires rent payments. 

If you’re interested in seeking out mobile franchise opportunities, look no further. 1851 Franchise has complied a list of the top 7 mobile brands to target for your next business venture.
