Mapping Software for Franchise Systems

If you're expanding your franchise network without using purpose-built mapping software for franchise systems, you're operating in the dark. Spreadsheets, PDFs, or basic mapping tools can't provide the territory-level insight and control you need to grow confidently, stay compliant, and support your franchisees.

Zors is mapping software made specifically for franchisors. We combine geographic territory visualization with real-time CRM data, legal tracking, and document management—giving you a complete picture of your system from the map down to the signature.


Why Mapping Software for Franchise Systems Is Essential

Franchise success is rooted in geography. Where your franchisees operate, how their territories are defined, and what rights they’ve been granted all affect your legal exposure, growth potential, and operational strategy.

Here’s what the right mapping software unlocks for your brand:


Live Visibility into Awarded and Available Territories

Zors shows your franchise system on an interactive map by status:

  • Available

  • Pending

  • Sold (Not Open)

  • Sold (Open)

  • For Sale

  • Prospect

  • Closed

Unlike static maps or marketing PDFs, Zors is dynamic. As franchisees sign, transfer, or exit, your map updates in real time as you update the CRM —because it's connected to the underlying data in your CRM.


Territory Data Tied to People, Companies, and Agreements

With Zors, every shape on the map is linked to:

  • The franchisee company and its owners

  • The agreement(s) signed for that territory

  • The status of the territory (open, pending, terminated, etc.)

  • Key dates like opening, transfer, expiration, or non-renewal

This isn't just a map. It's a legal and operational record that helps you enforce rights, track obligations, and support franchisee success.


Accelerated Franchise Development

Sales teams waste time flipping between CRMs, PDF's and manual territory charts. With Zors:

  • Franchise sellers can instantly see what’s available

  • Avoid overlap or market saturation

  • Track deals by geography and stage

  • Prevent territory disputes before they start

Mapping software designed for franchising means development moves faster—and smarter.


Built-In Compliance and FDD Reporting

Zors mapping is tied directly to Item 20 disclosure categories:

  • Opened

  • Transferred

  • Terminated

  • Non-Renewed

  • Reacquired

  • Ceased Operations for other reasons

This means you can create accurate, audit-ready reports by territory—without needing to piece together last-minute spreadsheets every renewal season.


Centralized Insights Across Departments

  • Legal sees territory ownership and agreement status

  • Operations knows who’s open, pending, or closed

  • Compliance can monitor lifecycle data for every unit

  • Sales can plan with confidence

Zors gives your entire team the same clear, real-time picture—so everyone makes better decisions.


It’s Time to Ditch the Pins and PDFs

Most mapping software wasn’t built for franchises. Zors was. We combine advanced mapping tools for franchisors with the CRM, document, and compliance functionality you actually need to run and grow a successful franchise system.

If your brand is expanding—or if you’re tired of losing track of who owns what, where, and why—it’s time to upgrade.
