"Going Independent ? It takes massive manpower and resources to manage supply chain and keep raw material price low. That is what franchiser do, they keeps the raw materials cost low and make sure delivery is on time that is main reason for their success."
That is the exact company line RFG gave us , but due to my wife seeing how disorganised they were , she went independent , apart from the hassle of filling out credit approvals with the suppliers , (which in most cases she would have had to do with RFG) it was a walk in the park getting suppliers to deliver supplies right onto her counter top thanks to Bidvest , and the supplies were fresher as were local , and in most cases cheaper than if via RFG
