Retailing with more than one branch requires great organisation if you want to succeed.
Once you start to build multiple branches you need to build systems that help control the enterprise in your absence - otherwise you become a slave to the business.
Staff need to be more closely managed to avoid the possibilities of fraud and wasted resource.
You need systems to ensure that all branches comply with your central plans and business objectives.
