Franchise first started in America by the Singer Sewing Machine Company, a manufacturer of sewing machine in 1851. That pattern is then followed by General Motors company Automotive Industry who make sales of motor vehicles by appointing distributors franchise in 1898. Next, followed by the soft drink companies in America as distribution channels in the u.s. and other countries. Whereas in the United Kingdom the franchise was founded by j. Lyons through his Wimpy and the Golden Egg on the Decade of the 60 's.
The Franchise quickly became the dominant model in distribute goods and services in the United States. According to the International Franchise Association, now this is one of the twelve business trading in the United States is the franchise. Franchise absorb eight million workforce and achieve a forty-one percent of the entire retail business in the United States (David Hess, 1995: 333). 'S Franchising is then grown rapidly because of this marketing method used by many different types of businesses, such as restaurants, retail businesses, hair salon, car dealerships, hotels, petrol stations, etc. (Robert w. Emerson, 1994: 920).
In Indonesia the franchise is known since the 70 's when the influx of Shakey Pisa Swensen, KFC, and Burger King. Its looks very rapidly started around 1995. In 1997 recorded Data about Deperindag 259 recipient company franchise in Indonesia. After that, the franchise experienced a slump because of the efforts going on the monetary crisis.

It is due to the political and economic conditions that have not been marked as stable with political elites feud. It was only in 2003, business franchise in the country is experiencing a very rapid development.
Franchise can be distinguished in two forms, namely product and trade and business format franchise franchisees. In a form that gives license to the franchisor's first franchise to sell the franchisor's products. An example of the first shape is a car dealership and petrol station. In the form of the latter, namely the business format of franchisees, gives the whole concept of a franchisor's business covers marketing strategies, guidelines and standards for the operation of the efforts and assistance in operating the franchise. Thus franchisees have an identity that is inseparable from the franchisor's (David Hess, 1995: 337).
In general form is used in businesses such as fastfood restaurant Kentucky Fried Chicken, Pizza Hut, Mc Donald, Hotel, and car rental services. This form is used for foreign market Indonesia franchisor's attack and is used also by local businesses such as the Es Teller 77, Rudi Hadisuwarno Salon, the roads were Berek, etc.
