Franchise Agreement
프랜차이즈 계약은 Distributorship계약과 비슷한 측면이 있긴 하나 본질적으로 다르다. 이들의 차이점을 들어 본다면 다음과 같다. 프랜차이즈 계약은 기본적으로,① 상표, 서비스마크 등으로 대표되는 비지니스체계를 기초로 함. ② Franchisee는 franchiser의 brand 및 goodwill을 이용하여 당해 사업의 운영을 영위하되, brand등의 사용 및 영업지원 등에 대하여franchise 대가를 지불함. 그러나, Dealer 계약 또는 Distributorship계약은 물품의 계속적공급이 주목적이고 After service의 제공 및 상표 등의 사용은 통상 무료base로서 또한 부차적인 차원에서 지원되는 것에 불과함.
