Entrepreneur from Perm, Anastasia Knyazeva, shared on social media that she is forced to close her store two years after opening. In the comments to her post, other entrepreneurs confirm similar problems: they report closures in Ufa, Yekaterinburg, and satellite cities. One of the former franchisees from Verkhnyaya Pyshma stated that she worked for three years but ultimately closed with debts. At the same time, the company presented her with royalty demands – the debts doubled, reports the publication EAN.
"Zhiznmart" has not commented on this situation.
Among the main reasons for closures, entrepreneurs cite:
- an increase in tax burden,
- high rental costs,
- a decrease in demand for ready-made food in the "eco" and "healthy eating" formats.
Earlier, we reported that franchises of regional retailers continue to decline. This also applies to "Zhiznmart."
