About

In businesses around the world, franchising as a means of distribution is often the most profitable path to growth. Vietnam is no exception, having experienced gradual increases in successful franchises being opened throughout the country. However, tight regulatory frameworks often restrict prospective franchisors and franchisees in establishing or maintaining operations in Vietnam.

At LNT & PARTNERS, our lawyers have advised on and assisted in establishing some of the most prominent and successful franchises in Vietnam across a broad spectrum of industry sectors. Our team works closely together with the taxation, foreign investment, corporate and M&A, employment and competition law practices to deliver practical solutions. This ensures our goal of having our clients’ franchises run as smoothly as possible.
