Using web reviews, we analyze the effect of a partnership franchising model on consumer satisfaction and the differences in these effects before and during the COVID-19 pandemic for one of the largest German retailers. The franchise model of this chain is special in that the franchisor participates financially in a partnership model, and on the other hand, the franchisees enjoy significant entrepreneurial freedom. This study finds that consumers are substantially more satisfied with franchisees than centrally managed stores. Consumer satisfaction declined and the lead of franchisees diminished during the pandemic.
