Palawan Pawnshop Franchise: Is it a possibility?

When the times get tough, you only have so much at hand to make do and get back up. Which is why getting money is hard when not many trust that you can pay it back. This is the reason pawnshops are common everywhere you go, as they loan you money provided that you are able to pay the interest.

The Philippines has the largest network of pawnshops, particularly the Palawan Pawnshop, whose branches are scattered across Luzon, Mindanao, and Visayas. Wouldn’t you want to venture into something as lucrative as a pawnshop business?
