Sports Clips-A Growing Franchise


 In May, Sports Clips reached a billion dollars in haircuts. While only franchising for 16 years, Sports Clips is the number one hair care provider for men’s and boy’s haircuts. With over 780 stores in 38 states, Sports Clips continues to grow with 120 new stores projected to open this year. By focusing on a niche market, Sports Clips has been able to create and refine the haircut experience. In recent years, Sports Clips has ranked in the top 10 in Forbes’ Top 20 Franchises to Start and in the top 50 “fastest growing” franchises in Entrepreneur Magazine’s Franchise 500.

One unique business practice which has lead to Sports Clips' success is its use of non-exclusive licensing agreements. Through careful use and implementation of non-exclusive licensing deals, Sports Clips has partnered with organizations such as the NBA, MLB and NHL. Often times, these organizations are seen as having competing business interests and often employ the use of exclusive licensing arrangements. Non-exclusive license agreements typically have less restrictive terms binding one or both of the parties. However, in exchange, these agreements are usually much less profitable for one or both of the parties than an exclusive licensing deal.

 When a tire has failed by tread separation, and allegations are made that the tire was defective, by design and/or manufacture, a defense will undoubtedly be mounted by the tire company that manufactured the tire. As Florida tire attorneys who routinely deal with tire cases, we are not aware of any case where a tire manufacturer has come forward and admitted that the company manufactured a defective tire. Of all the millions and millions of tires that are manufactured, are we to believe that there is not a single lemon among them? Lawyer firm in Ohio .

Tire manufacturers and sellers will rush to propose a catalogue of reasons as to why the tire failed.
