It depends on the franchisor, but most require that you purchase your supplies and equipment through them. In the franchise agreement, check the restrictions they impose with regards to the franchisee's ability to purchase supplies and equipment elsewhere
The American Franchisee Association warns that this provision is one of the worst franchise provisions and be wary if there is such a provision http://www.franchisee.org/Buying%20a%20Franchise.htm . Check with them if you can purchase from other suppliers PROVIDED that the same standards are upheld

Some franchises are not worth it. Fast food such as McD's, Burger King, etc. charge upwards of $500,000. 7-11 is around 60 to 70k and most of your expenses are paid. You share in a profit pool with the franchise. You have all the hiring power.

Yes. To keep the unity between the franchises, even if it is more expensive, you must purchase through their distributors. It will be in the contract.
