Have you always dreamed of starting or investing in your own franchise? Have you always aspired to be your own boss and fit your lifestyle around your career? The International Franchise Show offers you incredible opportunities from all across the globe so that you can own the business of your dreams.
We have spent over 14 years connecting potential franchisees with incredibly successful franchisors, and this year will be no different. If you want to hear from the best in the industry and have the chance to talk to them in close quarters, this is the event for you.
If you're looking to invest in an international franchise, then make sure you explore our new international trail - highlighting all the global brands at the show.
This year, in partnership with Kindling Franchise Consultants, we also bring you the Children's Activity Franchise Pavilion. This provides a platform for over 20 of the top brands in the children’s activity sector and showcases the most incredible opportunities on offer within the sector. We have collaborated to shine a spotlight on the underrepresented, but highly exciting, franchises.

Circle the keynotes you want to see, the seminars and live panel discussions you want to attend, and the excellent exhibitors you want to meet and talk to. This is an unmissable opportunity to grow your list of connections by networking with like-minded professionals. The International Franchise Show is waiting for YOU.
We’re having a great show. We’ve seen probably 35-45 really interested people, we’ve had 1 person sign up already. I’d say it’s the best show we’ve seen in the last 3 years and a lot more international people.
Paul Murphy, Flip OutIn the 35 years that I’ve been involved in franchising, I’ve been to many franchise exhibitions, but coming to The International Franchise Show has been absolutely sensational. Even in the last 7 years, I’ve not seen a franchise show as busy as we’ve experienced here. Every day has been jam-packed with queues at the door. So I must say, as an exhibitor we are delighted with both the business of the show and the quality of the people we have met on the stand. We will certainly be back next year.

CREATE YOUR OWN AGENDA:
Compile a comprehensive to-do list that includes the speaking sessions you want to attend and the names of exhibitors you'd like to meet. This allows you to prioritise the aspects of the show that are most relevant to you and ensures you don't miss out on valuable opportunities.
TAKE NOTES FOR REFLECTION:
With the abundance of information available at the show, from seminar sessions to networking interactions, it's wise to take notes. This practice allows you to review your findings at the end of each busy day, providing time for reflection and deeper understanding.
THE FOOD AND DRINK FRANCHISE INDUSTRY
With franchising in the UK being met with such success, the food and drink industry in particular has also seen growth.
Many fast food and takeaway businesses and quick-service restaurants have come about in recent years due to the demand for cheaper food, online ordering, and on-the-go meals. According to IBIS World, the industry’s revenue is expected to rise in 2024 to £12.3 billion. This exemplifies how lucrative the opportunities on offer might be for those looking to start or invest in a food or drink franchise.
Many of the world’s largest food service brands like McDonald’s have a franchise model which has helped them with their international growth and renowned success. The benefits of the franchise model include less risk associated with the business; What Franchise reports that 80% of new franchises succeed in the first five years. Along with this, you are offered continued financial support and training from your franchisor, with access to their expertise and all the resources they have at their disposal. The business model is already up and running and therefore works successfully.
These reasons contribute to why many people every year invest in a franchise.
There will always be a demand for every kind of food and drink no matter whether it’s fast food, restaurants, or online ordering. At The International Franchise Show this year we have some incredible brands in attendance so you can explore the opportunities on offer. If you’ve been thinking about investing in the industry for a while but have been unsure of where to start, this is the place to be.

Training and Support: Bartercard typically offers comprehensive training and ongoing support to its franchisees. As well as ongoing support in areas such as marketing, operations, and customer service.

Children’s Activity Pavilion
This year, The International Franchise Show, in partnership with Kindling Franchise Consultants, brings you the Children's Activity Franchise Pavilion.
A much loved, dynamic and thriving part of the Franchise industry – the children’s sector continues to go from strength to strength. Investment in education remains resistant to outside economic winds, growing by an impressive 7.8% over the past 12 months, with numbers of both franchisors and franchisees on the rise. This growth is fuelled by parents who want to ensure that their children are learning new skills in a fun and safe way instead of simply being glued to electronic devices.
The International Franchise Show’s partnership with Kindling Franchise Consultants provides a platform for a selection of the top brands in the children’s activity sector and showcases the most incredible opportunities on offer within the industry. Our exhibitors cover multiple industries including art, education, drama, music, swimming, sports, nurseries, baby and toddler classes, and many more. Within this area, you'll find something to bring joy to every child.
If you are passionate about working with children and making a real difference in young people’s lives, then visit The Pavilion and see if you find your dream opportunity! There’s never been a better or more exciting time to be part of this powerhouse of the UK franchise industry.
Kindling is a specialist franchise consulting firm, recognised as one of the UK's most respected experts in the field. They provide strategic support to more than 20 children’s franchise brands across the globe and offer a unique voice in the franchise sector.
The firm is led by Founder, Andrew Walters, who has two decades of experience in senior management for some of the world's best franchise brands, including Stagecoach Performing Arts, Pitman Training and Mad Science.
Supported by
It’s a pleasure and a privilege to bring together such a selection of brands from the children’s sector. Our pavilion provides a unique forum for prospective franchisees to gather insight on the industry as a whole –and to talk to a range of brands under one roof. The sheer scale of the disciplines covered, means there is something for all – whatever your passion or background. I’m also excited to bring awareness to the incredible return that you can get from running a children’s activity franchise. Startup costs are typically low, overheads lower still and so it’s possible to generate financial rewards every bit as strong as the emotional ones that come from working with children.

The children’s activity sector was worth £17.7 billion to the UK economy in 2022

INTERNATIONAL TRAIL
There is certainly no shortage of International brands dominating the UK franchise market. Franchise brands across industries like food and drink, fitness, cleaning, children's education, and many more are growing in popularity and global expansion is seen as an extremely attractive next step for international organisations.
One of the many reasons why international franchisors might seek to expand into the UK is due to the easier regulation laws. In some countries, anyone interested in franchising or partnering with a franchise must be prepared to participate in thorough vetting processes and procedures as non-compliance can lead to legal issues and fines. This is a big reason why expanding into the UK might offer some relief against very strict regulations.
According to Franchise UK, there are over 48,000 franchise businesses currently operating in the UK which has more than doubled in the past 25 years. This shows the continual growing success of the franchise industry in the UK. Proactive Marketing also reports that franchising contributes £15.1 billion to the economy. This makes for an incredible market for US franchisors to tap into.
With the growing success and popularity of international franchises expanding into the UK, it might be worth investing in one of the models. Here at The International Franchise Show, we have a host of incredible international brands exhibiting with us. Many are looking to increase their presence in the UK, so why not have a conversation and see if it might spark a lucrative new partnership.
