A system includes a data storage device having franchisor approved product information. The system includes a franchisor network interface by which a franchisor can communicate with the data storage device and approve the product information, and a franchisee network interface providing network access by a franchisee to the franchisor approved product information. Product selecting and ordering by the franchisee is based upon the approved product information. The system also includes a third party network interface providing a third party access to the product orders and by which the third party manages access of the franchisor approved product information by the franchisee. The third party network interface permits the third party to communicate a product order to a manufacturer. The system further includes a manufacturer network interface by which the manufacturer can communicate with the data storage device to process the received product order in accordance with the approved product information.
