As a globally recognized successful business model, franchising has penetrated various industries in China rapidly since its introduction, reaching over 200,000 franchise stores and continuing to thrive in the future. The implementation of the Franchise Management Regulation has brought this market into a more regulated state, facilitating more effective collaboration between investors and project stakeholders, which has become a hot topic of discussion. Zhengzhou, as the core city of the Central Plains urban agglomeration, holds significant geographical and demographic advantages; it has been recognized by the State Council as an important central city in Central China, enhancing its commercial coverage capability and exhibition soft environment. Zhengzhou was awarded as one of the most competitive exhibition cities in China in 2020, placing fifth in the competitive landscape, thus making it a significant ground for national dining and regional brand competition.
