Eiffel Waffle Franchise: Pros and Cons
The franchisor's unusually clean legal and regulatory record - with zero disclosed lawsuits, franchisee-initiated settlements/judgments, government penalties, franchisor enforcement actions, or fraud cases - is a strong positive, but the system is very early-stage with zero franchised units and no operating track record to validate unit economics.
