Totally different sort of Franchise.
Mc Donald's controls the franchise, and the locations are all the same product.
Verizon Wireless gets partners to sell their products and services and the franchise is that stores parent. In example we have a Verizon Wireless Store which is "On Call" they have a huge sign saying Verizon wireless and the people would think it was a Verizon Wireless Corporate store. Alas they are not.
The franchise is "On Call" not a Franchise of Verizon.
The same is for Best Buy and walmarts or Costco or Radio Shack.
They may have a Verizon signage but you and I both know they are in no way a Verizon Wireless Franchise.
Its all in the wording. You should know that being a Police Officer.
You are trained to be observant and concise.
Good Luck
