Franchises for Independence/Startup under ¥1 Million

Recommended Points for Franchises under ¥1 Million

■Start with Low Capital!
Starting a business with under ¥1 million lets you raise funds in a short period. We have gathered franchise businesses attractive to those who want to start right away. You can become independent with low capital, making it ideal for those starting as a side business.

■What Kinds of Franchises Are There?
Franchises that can be started for under ¥1 million include store-less businesses, visiting-type businesses, house cleaning, caregiving, and repair businesses. Many of these are "skill-based" businesses that keep labor costs low and can be started as a sole proprietorship. They can be said to be businesses where you earn as much as you put in.

■Some businesses let you gain experience before opening! There are also franchises with internship programs and other opportunities to build experience before going independent, so compare and consider them.

MIA can issue the UK government-accredited MIA Diploma, guaranteeing that students will obtain the qualification and be admitted to overseas universities and graduate schools. As the owner, you will provide support for classes and assignments, enabling students to earn credits. Since all students can obtain a degree, there are no failures like in entrance exams.
