Timothy Bishop · Answer 1

The answer is C. She most likely has a brand franchise

Explanation:

Brand franchise is arrangement between a manufacturer and a retailer that gives the retailer the exclusive right to sell the manufacturer's product in a specific territory. This arrangement is usually done by contractual agreement over a period of time. In the case of Zully, she has a brand franchise with Ford Motor Company to be the exclusive seller of Ford vehicles. There is no concept of manufacturing franchise, producer distributor franchise or independent sales franchise.
