<mods:abstract>La teoría de Redes es una alternativa para seleccionar franquiciados con el&#xd;
fin de formalizar una relación que se consolide con el tiempo. La empresa española&#xd;
de ropa infantil Neck Child, S. A. propietaria de la franquicia Neck &amp; Neck ha reducido&#xd;
sus costes de información al disminuir la incertidumbre precontractual mediante la&#xd;
creación de redes egocéntricas en países donde se ha instalado, alcanzando menores&#xd;
costes en aquellos países donde las redes son más densas y con vínculos más fuertes.</mods:abstract>
<mods:abstract>Theory of Network is an tool in the choosing of franchisees for a given&#xd;
franchise system with a view to entering into a long-term operationally stable relationship.&#xd;
This paper studies the case Neck and Neck, one Spanish brand in the&#xd;
children´s fashion sector. This company has reduced her information costs because&#xd;
it has minimized the pre-contractual uncertainty by creating egocentric network, as&#xd;
master franchise or group of retail, in the countries where it is operating. When the&#xd;
networks are dense and the ties are strong, the reduction information costs are bigger.</mods:abstract>
