Spanning over 300 industries and thousands of brands, franchising opens doors, uplifts communities, and creates meaningful careers.
Franchisees Needed!
The International Franchise Association is currently collecting responses for our 2nd “Value of Franchising” survey – and we need to hear from all franchisees.
Conducted in partnership with Oxford Economics, this report helps guide IFA advocacy and awareness in support of franchising. If you’re a franchisee, please take 10 minutes to share more about your business. Franchisors and suppliers, please share with your systems, clients, and networks.
Your Voice IS P.O.W.E.R.
Join us in Washington this September 15-17 to get to know your elected officials and be a part of the movement that will impact the future of franchising.
