Behind the Logo: How Franchise Owners Actually Operate Locally

Are franchise businesses really “local,” or do they belong in the big-box category? In this episode of Chamber Amplified, we take a closer look at how franchise ownership actually works - and why many franchise operators are deeply invested in their local communities. Doug Jenkins of the Findlay-Hancock County Chamber of Commerce sits down with Paul Hadde, local franchise owner of Chick-fil-A Findlay, to talk about what it means to operate a franchise at the community level. From local hiring and philanthropy to leadership involvement and long-term investment, the conversation challenges some common assumptions about franchises and local business. In this episode, we discuss: -Why franchises often operate much more like local businesses than people realize -How franchise owners stay engaged in their communities -The role franchise businesses play in a healthy local economy -How community involvement works within a national brand structure -A look ahead at what’s coming next for Chick-fil-A in Findlay This conversation is especially relevant for business owners, community leaders, and anyone interested in economic development, workforce growth, and the evolving “buy local” conversation.
