‘I’ve been thinking about starting my own business for a while now but I wasn’t sure how to handle the finances with such a risky venture. That was when my friend suggested I visit the show and look into investing in a franchise. There were so many wonderful brands and exhibitors to chat with that I now feel that franchising is my path forward. I’m excited about investing soon and starting with an already successful business model. I would recommend the show to anyone who is unsure of their next steps or interested in franchising’

A brilliant day filled with interesting conversations and meeting lots of influential figures in the franchising community! I've been considering going down the franchising route for years but didn't know where to startthanks to The International Franchise Show I now have all the tools I need to to do it. Having the opportunity to speak with some incredible franchises gave me the chance to explore my options and find the right franchise for me, now I can't wait to get started and officially become my own boss.

EXHIBITOR LISTINGS
‘I had the best time at The International Franchise Show! I spoke to so many exhibitors that I was already familiar with and wanted to meet. Everyone was very friendly and open to having conversations about franchising, offering all of their expertise and tips for becoming successful. I learned things here that I think would have taken a lot of time and effort to find out elsewhere, I’ll definitely be back again!’
