The affluent ones were able to think about it. The lesser number of people were aware about the concept of ‘rejuvenation of body and soul’. With the advent of a lifestyle which had growing disposable income and sedentary life style, people started looking for health and wellness options. They also started getting very particular about how their physical appearance. These factors have witnessed the growth of health industry in India.

One of the ways is to expand via Franchise Owned and Franchise Operated (FOFO) Model. In this, franchisee owns and operates the whole business. The franchisor supports the franchisee in terms of equipment required, site selection, vendor management, providing ERP solutions, branding and marketing etc. The income generated through the operations is owned by the franchisee except the portion of royalty.
