Brand Analysis
Enterprise Mobility operates corporately in seven countries, including the United States, and franchises only in other international markets. The car rental brands a US buyer can actually franchise are Avis, Budget, and Hertz, and all three filed a 2026 FDD with no earnings disclosure in it.
Brand Analysis
Partly. Hertz System, Inc. franchises in the United States, but 390 of the 2,946 US outlets in its 2026 disclosure document were franchised and 2,556 were company-owned. The filing prices a new location at $879,300 to $16,249,000, charges 9% of gross receipts at airports and 7% off-airport, and makes no earnings claim at all.
Brand Analysis
The 2026 Brew Culture Franchise, LLC disclosure reports a $2,550,624 median across 297 franchised stands against a $940,500 to $2,283,500 investment, a ten-store minimum commitment, and a closed application window.
Scottish Inns requires a $7,500 initial franchise fee and a total initial investment range of $134,195–$2,611,995, per the most recent FDD on file.
