Why Dryyve, Not a Franchise?
Local operators have options: go independent, join a franchise, or partner with Dryyve. Here is what each path actually looks like.
Cost & Model Comparison
| Criteria | Going Independent | Joining a Franchise | Partnering with Dryyve |
|---|---|---|---|
| Upfront cost | None | $50K-$500K+ | None |
| Brand recognition internationally | None | High but their brand | Yes, and you keep your local brand |
| Access to global platforms | Do it yourself | Included, their terms | 20+ platforms, your pricing |
| Control over pricing | Full | Limited | Full |
| Exit terms | N/A | Years-long contract | Leave anytime |
| Revenue model | All yours, no reach | Fee-based | Revenue share, no upfront |
| Local brand identity | Kept | Replaced | Kept for local, Dryyve for international |
| Broker/wholesale access | None | Limited | Full network access |
The Bottom Line
If you are a local car rental at an international airport, you have three paths. Stay independent and miss international bookings. Join a franchise and lose control (and pay heavily for it). Or partner with Dryyve: get the international brand, the booking platforms, and the broker network, without the franchise cost or the loss of independence. That is the trade.
