A


spiring entrepreneurs will head north this summer in search of the ideal franchise opportunity, their destination: The British Franchise


Exhibition. The event provides the ideal environment to research opportunities, seek fi nancial and legal advice, and meet franchise experts face-to-face. Held at EventCity Manchester on 17 and 18 June, the industry’s most reputable brands and organisations are readily available to give invaluable insight into the highly profi table world of franchising.


Franchising contributed £15.1billion to the UK economy last year and employs 621,000 people, according to the latest bfa/NatWest Franchise Survey. Both fi gures have increased by more than 10 per cent since 2013 and show no signs of slowing down.

Pip Wilkins, chief executive of the British Franchising Association (bfa), explains: “Good franchising continues to deliver serious dividends for Britain’s economy, creating businesses, jobs and wealth for local communities across the country. Established trends of strong profi tability and very low failure rates over the last 20 years highlight the benefi t of self- employment through franchising, a path that more and more individuals are taking. The outstanding performance of the sector, in good economic times and bad, shows the power of the franchise model and its impact on the UK’s business landscape as it increases each year.”


The exhibition has the support of the bfa with organisers working in close partnership with the industry’s governing body to create a highly informative event. The partnership ensures brands


are reputable through an accreditation process, giving attendees assurance they’re meeting owners of proven franchise models. With so many brands available it is important for all potential franchisees to receive the right advice from a recognised organisation they know they can trust in order to start their journey to success. The key to getting your business up and running is to fi rst determine the type of business you’d like to run. There are hundreds of diff erent brands, investment levels and business types in an extensive list of sectors ranging from accountancy, education, fi tness, food and drink, property, children’s activities and beyond. Attending the event will be headline sponsors Anytime Fitness as well as a variety of other exciting brands refl ecting the diversity of the industry including McDonald’s, Safe Clean, Expense Reduction Analysts,
