Firestorm offers business continuity franchise opportunities

Firestorm Franchising LLC has announced that it will begin accepting applications for business continuity planning and consulting franchises.

Franchisees will be able to utilize all capabilities and services of Firestorm - which provided the on-site crisis management support at Virginia Tech - including the Firestorm name and trademark; operational methodology including plans, policies, procedures and training; and access to its staff, Expert Council and Online Resource Center.

Franchises will be awarded only to those individuals who can demonstrate senior leadership expertise, problem-solving skills, a commitment to help others and a desire to build a business based on a ‘Culture of Preparedness.’

DLA Piper, an international leader in franchise and distribution law, provided legal counsel on structuring and documenting Firestorm’s franchise program. Franchises will be limited to one per zip code, though franchisees will be able to do business nationally across the US.
