    for frow in fcf:
        franchiseList[frow['Misc Franchise Name']] = frow
with open('Franchise_Name_Scrub_List.csv', 'r') as fF:
    fcf = csv.DictReader(fF)
    for Frow in fcf:
        franchiseList[Frow['FRANCHISE Name - Directory']] = Frow

I do not understand what you want to ask, your code is reasonable, except I do not recommend to repeat the field names instead of simple assignment using copy method to make fresh copy of dictionary.

You may also have chicken and egg problem where to get the first file to read at beginning.
