Franchising in the United States started shortly after the Civil War (1861-1865), when the Singer Company began to set up sewing-machine franchises

sewing machines were invented to speed up and increase the level of accuracy in when people were sewing. it was also a luxury to those who sew every day. If you have ever sewn by hand for any extended period of time you would know immediatley why there was a need for such an invention. Sewing machines are not a new idea nor have they had major improvements to the actual mechanical design for more then 90 years. Having worked on machines as old as te 1800's to the present, the addition of computers has in someways added some nice advancements to this time honored task. However, many of the finest machines still perking are those made prior to 1960 when quality was still the focus. The U.S. civil war was a major boost for the sewing machine as the need to produce soilder's uniforms faster and stronger seams was needed. Mass quantities of uniforms were able to be produced in sizes rather then custome fit and sewn by hand which was a long laborious process.
