NEW FOR THIS YEAR: The Franchising Report 2020 includes data on the historic performance of network sizes by brand including future trend analysis, the rolling three-year vehicle parc by brand, franchise investment analysis and average CO2 figures by brand.
The unique Auto Retail Network Index aggregates a host of metrics covering both the cost to run a franchise; its profitability, investment levels and how easy it is to do business with the NSC, has been updated for the 2020 report. This scoring system builds on the areas added last year which include a percentage of franchises that have changed ownership in each brand, approved used schemes by brand and a listing of which groups hold the largest proportion of each brand’s network.
