Franchising show now on 8th year
The Association of Filipino Franchisers Inc. will hold its 8th Franchising Show entitled “Franchising Opportunities: Rising Above the Crisis” on Sept. 4 to 6 at the World Trade Center.
This year’s theme is Franchising Expo and Business Opportunities for SMEs, which is linked to the association’s “Kabuhayang Pinoy Muna” advocacy.
The show is a one-stop shop for interested investors, especially small and medium enterprises. It will showcase the country’s most promising franchisors and offers a wide variety of franchises. There will also be food carts, logos and collaterals used by franchisors on display to give investors more ideas about what they will get if they go into franchising.
