Introduction
Many internationally recognized brands such as McDonald’s, Starbucks, KFC and SevenEleven have penetrated the Vietnam market by franchising their business systems to local franchisees. Franchising is now a common practice in Vietnam. To some extent, franchising is an efficient way to overcome statutory restrictions/requirements in conditional sectors (such as training sector and retail sector). Mark license is an important and inseparable part of a franchise agreement. Along with franchised business systems, the relevant marks are licensed to the franchisees for their use in Vietnam.
