Franchising Opportunities with Handee Marts, Inc.
Handee Marts, Inc. franchises 7-Eleven stores in the states where Handee Marts operates. Stores are franchised as a sole proprietorship, although the company has a policy for transferring the franchise agreement to a corporation that the franchisee owns after he or she takes possession of the store.

Handee Mart provides the land, building and equipment for the store and leases the franchisee a fully stocked and ready-to-operate 7-Eleven store. Franchisees receive continuing advice, training and assistance on store operations, bookkeeping, auditing, financing, merchandising, advertising and other services as described in the company’s offering circular, and they have a license to use the service mark "7-Eleven".

The franchisee must pay an initial franchisee fee ranging from $10,000 to $40,000 when signing the franchise agreement. The franchisee also pays a royalty to Handee Marts, Inc., which is a percentage of the gross profit that the store generates. This is unique in franchise relationships since many franchisors require the payment of a royalty based on a percentage of sales.

In addition, Handee Marts, Inc. retains a more significant financial and marketing advisory role in the franchise business than most other in the franchise business. Interested applicants should discuss this role in detail with the Handee Marts representatives and their own business advisors before franchising a store.
