Franchise due diligence
Vet a Chilean franchisee before you sign the agreement.
Franchise due diligence checklists cover the franchisor's disclosure documents well. They rarely cover how to check the financial health of the specific person or company about to operate your brand in Chile.
What franchisors need to check
Beyond enthusiasm and a signed application.
Legal identity
Confirm the exact entity or individual RUT that will hold the franchise agreement.
Financial capacity
Review a Carpeta Tributaria to assess whether the franchisee can fund build-out, working capital and royalty obligations.
Litigation history
Screen for court cases or insolvency filings that could signal financial distress or dispute patterns.
Why this matters more in Chile.
A franchisee's proposal and site plan can look strong on paper. Chile's Carpeta Tributaria is the fastest way to see whether the underlying finances back it up — and it's a document most international franchisors don't know exists.
What you get
A plain-English report covering identity, litigation exposure and — when the franchisee shares it — a Carpeta Tributaria read: activity, consistency and financial capacity.
