Italian term or phrase: convenzionati
From an oil company's annual report. I assume the term means service stations that are run by independent operators by agreement with the company, but can't think of the correct term. TIA for any suggestions.

"Al 31/12/2005 la Rete XXX è costituita da 1673 impianti, di cui 20 autostradali, 1052 di proprietà e 601 convenzionati."

franchised


Explanation:
You would normally use "franchising" in Italian, but maybe that's what is meant here, since it's opposed to "proprietary"...
