The Business & International Franchise Exhibition

16th-17th March 2012 
National Hall

If you are considering a change in career direction - you've become disillusioned with your job, because of redundancy, retirement, or you're just looking for a better quality of life - a visit to The British & International Franchise Exhibition should be your next step.

 

Starting a business with a proven business model and established brand has historically been shown to be more successful in a recession than starting  your own independent business.

 

Exlusive support by the British Franchise Association (BFA)

 The The British & International Franchise Exhibition is the only franchise exhibition in Birmingham to be supported by the British Franchise Association (bfa) and only allows franchise companies that have met the Association’s code of ethics to exhibit at the event. This means you can be confident in the franchise opportunities presented to you, as they are an ethical entity within the UK market.

 

 Extensive Conference

  The Conference at The British & International Franchise Exhibition provides you with an opportunity to find out everything you need to know about franchising, from where to start, who you need to talk to, and where to find advice, to which franchise would suit you best.

Featuring experts from the bfa, members from the legal and finance professions, business advisers, as well from both franchisors and franchisees – you will come away equipped with a fundamental grounding, which you can take on your search for that perfect franchise.

 

Franchisee Panel

 Find out about the realities of making the transition from being employed to working for yourself from a panel of franchisees. Hear their successes and failures, true stories, anecdotes and advice - what no handbook can offer.

 

Career Clinic

Have you just retired, recently started a family or been made redundant and are considering franchising as your next career move? Careers experts will help you benchmark your skills and discuss your options to give you a clear, focused and realistic career plan.
