Franchising is a system of marketing goods and services and technology, which is based on closed and continuous cooperation between independent actors (meaning the franchisor and individual franchisee) and is separated both legally and financially, where the franchisor grants rights to the individual’s franchisee and imposes an obligation to carry out its business following the franchisor’s concept. The franchise business that is currently going viral is the Mixue franchise, which offers luxury ice cream at very cheap prices. Mixue became a franchise that had very rapid growth during the 2020 pandemic. In the 2020–2023 period, its outlets reached 1000 in Indonesia. So it is called the angel that takes away empty shophouses because the rapid development of Mixue also helps the property business. Even though it targets third and fourth-ranked cities, Mixue dominates provincial capitals in Indonesia. Mixue’s phenomenal success in Indonesia, after having had great success in Vietnam since 2018, has caused Mixue to expand to Singapore, South Korea, and Japan. In this research, the author will analyze the franchise laws from a legal perspective and compare them with those of the three countries, which may be a factor in the success of the Mixue franchise, which was previously achieved in Indonesia and Vietnam. This research is normative juridical research that uses secondary data in the form of primary legal materials, namely various relevant laws and regulations, and secondary legal materials, namely books and legal literature. The approaches used are statutory and conceptual. Results from research are hoped to provide one-stop article input for entrepreneurs, businesspeople, and legal academics regarding the comparison of franchise law, especially in Singapore, South Korea, and Japan, which Indonesia and Vietnam also complement.
