Recently, the adoption of franchising emerged as a possibility for startups. This study adopts a novel approach in the startup literature to explain the decision-making process for startups formulating franchising strategies. Additionally, an exploratory framework of this process was designed. Multiple-case studies on Brazilian startups that operate through franchised units were carried out. For startups that operate through conventional franchises, the use of third-party capital is predominant, while for those that operate with micro franchises the lack of an employment relationship is determinant.","PeriodicalId":35384,"journal":{"name":"Latin American Business Review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48046666","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It was conducted via three focus groups and 18 individual semi-structured interviews, involving middle-class adult men from Belo Horizonte, Brazil. Based on content analysis, we analyzed various items of status consumption and identified several differences between members of the lower and upper middle class, with high and low cultural capital. Results indicate that the distinction is sharp in some social consumption fields (cooking practices, language skills, and travel) yet only slight in other categories (sports, technological, and home products).","PeriodicalId":35384,"journal":{"name":"Latin American Business Review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46270403","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It was established that while structural and cognitive capital exists, relational capital is limited due to a lack of trust and commitment between suppliers. This paper demonstrates how social issues can be addressed to support the pathway to a balanced response to sustainability in MSE supply chains.","PeriodicalId":35384,"journal":{"name":"Latin American Business Review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59670444","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mechanisms of control and compliance imposed by institutions can negatively impact product-related decisions and innovation.

Using the typology proposed by Mitchell and colleagues in 1997, we identified definitive stakeholders (e.g., slaughterhouses), dependent stakeholders (e.g., government agencies), dominant stakeholder (e.g., Greenpeace), discretionary stakeholder (e.g., beef consumer), and nonstakeholder (e.g., media). Beyond providing a mapping of stakeholders and their roles, this study contributes by emphasizing the need to balance firm attention to its stakeholders, who wield varying levels of legitimacy, power, and urgency.
