Chains and Franchises How<br />
is the non-independent optical<br />
market structured in <strong>Canada</strong>?<br />
From small franchises and chains<br />
that confine their activities to one<br />
province, to nationwide chains<br />
and in-store optical departments,<br />
this feature examines the structure<br />
<strong>of</strong> these businesses, what<br />
range <strong>of</strong> products they sell, their<br />
target markets and unique selling<br />
propositions.<br />
