Legal treatment of franchise in Northern Macedonia and Republic of Kosovo Abstract: In this paper, franchise is treated as a way of transferring knowledge and experience as well as trademarks. The concept of exclusivity is most often defined as a method of marketing goods and services. Of course this kind of definition is insufficient. Franchising is more than a method of distribution, a specific way of financial impoverishment of meaning without an investment of its capital by the franchise. The business people franchising system gives the experience and the right approach to the methods and enables them to gain from the brand reputation that defined the reputation. This paper aims to highlight the importance of legal treatment, as the franchisor enables the legal circulation not only of goods and services but also of rights such as trademarks. The focus of legal treatment is on the Republic of Northern Macedonia and Kosovo. For these two countries, we have also presenting franchise data. In this paper besides the historical aspect, I am also analyzing the legal sources related to franchising in the European Union. These two states have an obligation to bring their legal systems into line with those legal sources that apply to European Union law
