Master Licensing International expansion is not only a dream, but also a necessity in today’s global economy. Ice Gallery is already present in a number of countries and is expanding fast, becoming a global license and the leading brand in ice sculpting. In this view we are granting rights for the development of a specific territory, which in most cases would be a whole country. The master license differentiates itself from a normal single unit license in that our partner will actively take our place as a mother company inside his market and will act as being the mother company itself, developing not only its own business units, but also a network of sub licensed Ice Gallery branches under his guidance and support. Ice Gallery has specific guidelines regarding its business layout, the standardized ICE GALLERY equipment, the know-how to be used and implemented, the marketing and other factors that characterize the whole concept. These specifications are an important part of the Ice Gallery concept and our master licensee will be its guardian.
