Cyrile Gouro: Task 1- identify the purpose of four different business organisations (p1)

Sole Trader – Tony’s Newsagent

A sole trader is the smallest type of business ran by one person but they might have several employees. A sole trader is personally responsible for all aspects of business like money,
For my business I have chosen a Local newsagent called Tony’s which is located opposite Uxbridge High School. The business has 2 employees who both serve in the shop. Tony’s sell their products to the local community. These products include food, sweets and newspapers.
The purpose of Tony’s newsagent is to provide goods to the local area at a resizable price (at profit)
The advantages of being a sole trader are that there is only one boss who makes all the decisions and all the profit goes to the boss.
The disadvantages of being a sole trader are that there is unlimited liability, one person does all the work and they usually work long hours.
The newsagent is a small business because it doesn’t sell enough products to make it a medium business and it’s also a local business because it doesn’t have any other shops.
Franchise - Subway
A Franchise is a business where someone has bought a business from someone else that has an established name. For example you can buy a McDonalds for lots of money from McDonalds and you are then responsible says for the one in Uxbridge and you get the profit from the business.
As an alternative you can open your own burger bar in Uxbridge for less money and call it Ben’s Burger Bar.
For my Franchise I have chosen Subway which sells a range of salad baguettes to the public. This is a successful Franchise and as such you would pay lots of money to buy this sort of Franchise.
The purpose of subway is to
The advantages of being a Franchise is that it has more chance of succeeding than failing because it is a known brand, if you didn’t buy a Franchise and just opened a sandwich bar it would have less chance of succeeding

    Opening a franchise company has its joys and perils. While the built-in brand recognition is a big plus for a start-up, that brand has not reached the level of some of the largest fast food chains. The franchise brand may not provide the level of support expected from a larger franchise chain. With that said, the combined management experience, and synergy between the goals of the franchisor and the company's goals will lead to the long-term success of our franchise.…

Most small businesses are sole traders. Examples could be: plumbers, hairdressers, electricians, newsagents and other small shop retailers.…

    The Subway Story

    • 5528 Words
    • 23 Pages

    The Subway story started when Fred DeLuca, its cofounder and his family friend Dr. Peter Buck, worked on a business plan for a submarine sandwich shop. Dr. Buck gave a loan of $1000 for implementation of this plan. The first restaurant was opened in Bridgeport, Connecticut, in 1965. It did well in its first summer with the help of advertising slogans like "put a foot in your mouth.'' Emphasizing the foot-long sandwich, and "when you're hungry, make tracks for Subway." Buck suggested opening a second restaurant. "That way people will see us expanding and think that we're successful." DeLuca has changed the company's system of franchise development several times over the years and has kept the concept simple and relatively inexpensive for franchise buyers (Walker, J.R. 2007, p.27). Subway restaurants' is a registered trademark of Doctor's Associates Inc. (DAI). DAI owns the operational business concept and trademark of SUBWAY Restaurants. It is the franchisor and seeks to find entrepreneurs, or franchisees to partner with. The franchisee buys the right to operate the SUBWAY® franchise according to DAI's contract. DAI is a privately owned company, located in Milford, Connecticut. Here, at corporate headquarters, approximately 600 people work to keep SUBWAY® Restaurants the number one sandwich franchise in the world (http://www.subway.com/StudentGuide/, 2006).…

    A franchise is a legal agreement between franchisers and franchisees that consents use of the franchise’s trademark and trade name or marketing plan to sell products or services (Kubasek, Brennan, & Browne, 2012, p. 791). Through a franchising arrangement franchisee can profit from implementing another’s efficacious business model. One of the most attractive advantages is the high probability of success of 90 % as compared to 20 % for small businesses (Staring and Naming a Business Presentation, 2012, Slide 9). Other advantages include established franchise reputation, operational support and training, product research and development, and better access to financing. On the downside, business plan rigidity can deprive the quality of customer service and hinder a creative business owner. Thus, both the Clayton Act regulates business competition and price discrimination (15 USC §§ 12-27; 36 Am J1st Monop etc §§ 141, 142) and the Sherman Act is a federal antitrust act (15 USC §§ 1 et seq; 36 Am J1st Monop etc. § 141) protect the public and small business owners from monopolization and market power.…
