There is no other firm of franchise advisors that have the reputation and can deliver the depth or breadth of experience in franchising that can be obtained through MSA. We are advisors, domestically and internationally, to franchisors spanning from small emerging concepts to those that are household names and whose brands dot the landscape of America. Because of our proven capabilities in brand performance and our reputation for delivering on our promise to provide our clients with practical guidance on real world experience, MSA's clients also include many of the world's largest non-franchised brands as well. Our services include threshold analysis to determine the potential for companies considering franchising, the design and development of franchise systems, strategic and tactical planning for established franchisors, domestic and international growth strategies, alternative methods of expansion and distribution, restaurant consulting services, operations manuals and training programs, litigation support, mergers and acquisitions and social sector franchising.
