When you're planning franchise expansion, the insights you gather from your stakeholders can make or break your growth strategy. This **Franchise Expansion Stakeholder Interview Form** helps you systematically collect input from the people who know your business best—existing franchisees, corporate team members, real estate professionals, and market analysts.

Built with Paperform, this template is designed for franchise brands ready to scale strategically. Instead of scattered email threads and inconsistent interview notes, you get a structured, professional intake process that captures critical feedback on territory selection, operational support, brand standards, and profitability metrics.

### Who should use this form

This template is perfect for franchise development directors, business growth teams, and executive leadership at franchise organizations across industries—from food and beverage to fitness, retail, home services, and professional services. Whether you're a regional franchise system or a national brand planning your next wave of expansion, this form helps you make data-driven decisions grounded in real stakeholder experience.

### What makes this form valuable

Franchise expansion isn't just about finding new locations—it's about understanding what makes your existing franchisees successful and what barriers they've faced. This form guides respondents through targeted questions about market viability, competitive positioning, support infrastructure, training effectiveness, and the operational realities that impact unit economics.

The conditional logic built into the template adapts the interview based on the stakeholder's role, ensuring franchisees answer questions about their on-the-ground experience while corporate team members focus on brand consistency and scalability. Real estate experts can provide location-specific insights, and market analysts can weigh in on demographic and competitive factors.
