Sponsored by:


Business Plan Clinic (F60)


Have all your questions answered in one location before your hunt for that perfect business begins. Meet industry experts, consultants, lawyers, bankers and franchisors for free one-to-one advice.


Finance may be required to help set up your business. Banks generally expect a personal commitment from a customer; however, for


well-established franchise systems, banks may consider financing up to 70 per cent of the total set-up costs.


A business plan is a working document against which the business’s performance can be measured.


Lenders will want you to demonstrate that you have a good understanding of the business and its financial requirements.


Visit the Business Plan Clinic to learn all you need to know about securing funding. Financial consultants will be on hand to offer expert advice and guidance.
