THE HEALTH AND WELLNESS ISSUE

The May/June edition of Franchise Canada is the Health and Wellness issue. The franchises in this issue have made it their mission to provide effective physical and mental health care for a wide range of Canadians. These brands also offer opportunities for entrepreneurs to build their own sweat equity. This issue features stories of success from franchisees who build effective franchise businesses while building muscle, while shining the spotlight on a performing arts franchise, and other outlets encouraging healthy routines in kids’ schedules.

Don’t miss a spotlight on casual and fine dining, and a cross-country look at the beauty salons and spas providing rejuvenation from coast to coast, in addition to regular department articles full of franchising success stories and opportunities from both new and established franchise brands.
